Ethereal

Sigur Ros. If you haven't heard them, now is your opportunity. If you appreciate beauty, this is a band that wholly encompasses that. That is not the only reason I posted this video, of course. But the homosexual themes. The singer is openly gay. Their videos and music have this alluring exquisiteness that makes me want to cry.

Here are the lyrics to this song translated in English, the title meaning "Good Weather For Airstrikes"
I Slide Forward
Through My Head
I Think Half Way
Backwards
See Myself Sing
The Anthem We Wrote Together
We Had A Dream
We Had Everything
We Rode To The End Of The World
We Rode Searching
Climbed Skyscrapers
Which Later Exploded
The Peace Was Gone
Balance Leaks Out
I Fall Down
Slide Forward
Through My Head
I Always Return To The Same Place
Total Silence
No Answer
(But) The Best Thing God Has Created
Is A New Day
