This is awesome! Love the Knife.Brilliant performance, The best live act i have ever seen. For those those that does not know, one of the members in the Knife is in this perfromance unmasked. Olof is the dancer in the blue jacket. (Btw the singer in the green dress is a guy).
I saw every episode of this show and this is one of the few live performances I do remember and I only saw it once. Now when I saw it 8 years later there were only few details that I didn´t remember. I think that tells something about this video.
my heart is exploding with love for this song, this performance, this elegant mystery on the stage...<3 i can barely breathe xxxxxxxxxxxx why does it bring me to tears? so magical x
Absolutely brilliant. And even though the going-up-on-the-stage-and-dancing is clearly staged, it's pretty amazing how the other people in the audience, who wouldn't necessarily be in on it, don't really react. Doesn't surprise them. Sweden is so much more accepting than America!
@thedavenull That is not Karin (fever ray) it's a man in drag, the guy dancing is olaf the other half of the knife, Karin is shorter than olaf, this guys like 6 ft 5 ffs.
When I heard this first (on the album) I thought it would be funny if it was a man that sang it.. And Now, it's got a new meaning.. And yes, if I would sing it, it would have been "I'm in love with your sister"
I like his awkward shuffle up to the stage. xD I like how dancing is a natural thing to do in this video... Reminds me how awkward that would be to American audiences, where it's unacceptable and generally not done, even if it was staged.
@xsoulsticex Did I say America in GENERAL? I said American AUDIENCES, as in SHOWS. You wouldn't see people coming up to dance in a live version of a song. You're a dumbass, especially since you can't read. :)
I love this song, but this one's lipsync. This isn't the real singer of this song. The real singer is a real woman that can be seen in the original video clip at the end, it's the woman who isn't dancing.
Excellent piece of work!! Thank you very much for Sharing!!!!!
What a way of meeting people and get to see their talent. At first was reluctant being on youtube, but getting to do this has brought me into the houses of some very special people. You are one of them. Life; isn't it wonderful!!! Keep up the good work. Hope You Are Having A Splendid Day!!!!
@kidaok00 "I just realized that the first guy out there is Olof Dreijer"
I saw this version before I knew who Karin and Olof were, and I thought it was great - the way he looks so captivated, the way he never takes his eyes off of the singer. When I learned that he was in the band I just thought "this guy is awesome".
The music video goes into more detail, and he plays the part very well. There's a whole story going on in the video, just in everyone's eyes.
Jag är helt betagen!!!! Så otroligt bra..!!!! Visste att the Knife är bra men detta tar priset..:) mixen med musiken och personerna..såå vacker han är , Richard Engfors.
Fantastiskt :)
The dance is the dance of professional prostitudes
I have no idea what this song is about or who sings it but for 2 weeks now I've been hynpnotized by it and it's becoming an obbsession....NOT COOL! I can't stop listening to this.
@Redcaster916 The song is about an unrequited crush and the self-doubt that keeps us from truly connecting with one another. It's sung by Karin Dreijer Andersson. And no, that's not her in the video.
If you're wondering....that's not Karin. It's the chick from the video for this song. I think the first guy dancing is Olof Dreijer though. I can't tell if Karin is in the group.
@dcney07 Olof, the guy in the blue actually says he mixes all of The Knife's show in advance, but the question is, since this was done for live television, did anybody join in the dance that wasn't supposed to? Also, of course this isn't "live" persay, hell a transvestite is lip-syncing in place of Karin ffs.
What I'm wondering is how many of those people dancing, weren't part of the plan, and just decided to join in and dance anyway... also I like how some of them start to try and dance like olof.
@theasianyee actually it's just the swedes. it's a really odd phenomon, if they hear music they start dancing. a haunted, restless race. that's why public music is illegal there.
@theasianyee The first guy that gets up is off the official video. The others get up as the rest did in the video too. Of course it's planned lol. But that's the idea of it, that people let go of their inhibitions, let go and dance, regardless of difference. We're all the same at the end of the day, we just wanna have fun :)
@theasianyee they were part of the plan, thought everyone knew that. And the song is playback with a transexuall man/woman on the mic(the blonde), not Karin.
Awesome song- hilarious video. Which is what it is-note the quotation marks around live. It is completely a music video and that is a man. Check Google images for The Knife and you will see a pretty woman who looks completely different --and --the guy who walks up to the stage in this video. Haha
@katzpajamas13 what you see here is a transvestite, Karin drejer is in the offical video for like 4 seconds, and her brother olof is the guy in the blue jacket in both this and the offical video.
I wonder if someone in the audience who wasn't an actor actually stood up and danced
