| Sigur Rós – Viðrar Vel Til Loftárása Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
Thinking about a relationship between the title (and inspiration) of this beautiful song and the (unique) vid, I just come to one simple conclusion: This song is about leaving categories and borders behind and just care about where and how to find *love*. See, where the whole "gay"-discussion has brought us: To love people of one's own gender became just one more category. There is no liberty and no freedom, just rules and borders. The most used cuss words on Youtube are "gay" and "fag". Thank you, "liberation"! We are categorizing, even if there is nothing to categorize: Two boys which are at the very beginning of puberty are kissing each other. What are your dirty thoughts seeing this? Think about it... (and thats what the vid is about — see the beauty instead of jugdging) And why are we categorizing? Because of fear! A strange idea of "moral" and "order" determines our whole life, killing the rare beauty of love. And it doesnt matter if something beautiful fighted or accepted officially — it will die if pigeonholed. See the beauty and love instead of judging — for me that's the main message of everything Sigur Rós does. And that's why I like them so very much. (Think of the X-Rating for the new Hoppipolla Vid on YouTube. Things like these are ridiculous for a Middle European — and dangerous for the emotional health of the rest of the world ;-) ) |
