oh yes I like it. the choice of b/w absolutely perfect. poetic. a bit too long but its part of this kind of music. is this the difference of having a good production company behind you?
         
Anyone else notice the bjork sample in this: telephone like ring
         
now THIS is a beautifull video
         
Well that was completely different. The thought of making something like that is very appealing.
         
I loved this video so much. I'm so jealous!

It reminded me of Michael Kenna's photography. He specializes in black and white prints of snowy minimalist japanese landscapes.

Something to aspire to.
         
That was great. I'd like more videos like this. And yeah, lusk, "Possibly Maybe." :)

The angles in the performance footage were very Japanese, but for me that's what makes it charming. I feel like I'm connecting with them.

I don't understand why there aren't more nature videos.
         
the nature footage is beautiful. I thought the performance footage was awful though. 100% pure fermented cheese. the song doesn't help either.
         
you mean, 'fermented soybeans.' natto sushi...yum! =D

I'm still into this.. If I saw this on MTV I'd soil myself.

Piana: This vid was filmed in Oslo (pics!) in March 2006.

English translation:

rain showers color the town blue
we swim in the light
our tiny goodbye echoed

we might have to say goodbye
what are we starting to forget
we might have to be apart
we might not meet again

we might have to say goodbye
midnight sun in the sky
we might have to be apart
what are we starting to loose

Also the song is actually called "Something is Lost"
