The Knife Music Videos

SOO COOL: "Marble House" by The Knife (embedding disabled)

SO FREAKY "Silent Shout" by The Knife:



AHHH NIGHTMARE!! I used this song in one of the machinima films I've made. Funny that their music video also has to do with ugliness and beauty because my film showed the absurdity of couture.

SO INTRIGUING "We Share Our Mother's Health" by The Knife:



I've blogged this video before, but I did it again because I just can't get enough of it. And I could probably make it in Flash some day a long time from now!

Basically The Knife/Fever Ray are maintaining a certain art in music video that makes it more music film instead of a marketing ploy for pop artists. The end.

Fever Ray : 1, Lady Gaga: 0

Fever Ray makes Lady Gaga look like such a poser. And FR's music is so much better (though, admittedly, LG makes good dance tracks). Swedish pop is so great.

J: Sweden and Denmark next summer? YES PLEASE!



WHAT THE EFF?!?!?!?!?!?!!?!? She's insane and it's hilarious.

I found that vid on this site as I was looking for music by Robyn. Here's a pretty cool song (I Blame Coco ft. Robyn-Caesar (Miike Snow Remix):

When I Grow Up--Fever Ray

This song is always stuck in my head. Don't ask why.

When I Grow Up
Fever Ray

When I grow up

I want to be a forester

Run through the moss on high heels

That's what I'll do

Throwing out a boomerang

Waiting for it to come back to me

When I grow up

I want to live near the sea

Crab claws and bottles of rum

That's what I'll have

Staring at a seashell

Waiting for it to embrace me

I put my soul into what I do

Last night I drew a funny man

With dog eyes and a hanging tongue

It goes way back

I've never liked that sad look

From someone who wants to be loved by you

I'm very good with plants

When my friends are away

They let me keep the soil moist

On the seventh day I rest

For a minute or two

Then back on my feet to call for you

You've got cucumbers on your eyes

Too much time spent on nothing

Waiting for a moment to arise

The face in the ceiling

And arms too long

I'm waiting for him to catch me

Kinda cool lyrics, right? I like the image of running through the woods on high heels...very interesting
