Those of you who have not seen the original music video for this track I highly recommend you watch it. It is one of the most amazing electro pop songs I have ever heard in my life and has a really fun video to accompany it .
@tpaladino I disagree, I think that whilst those bands all created this musical image much earlier, the knife have refined it into a new, on their own terms, idea...
Can someone please let me know what instrument they are using that starts at about 2:09, it sounds like a steel bass drum from Jamaica or something? and where can I find other bands that use it? I'm obsessed.
@derCUELLE It's from the bonus live DVD/CD that comes with the deluxe edition of Silent Shout. You can buy the mp3 on amazon (the bonus disc is for sale in mp3 under the name Silent Shout - an audio-visual experience)
I was going to leave a comment on how much this music..this performance touched me, made me realize the..power i guess of such artisic genius..as i started typing I realized there are no words.....
I share the same sentiments. This was randomly posted on a forum I visit. I instantly fell in love with their music. I'm 35 yo and in general, don't follow music anymore but I absolutely love this band.
@unholyedsoul a lot of the time they like to make their live performances sound similar but different from the studio originals on purpose to make the experience different when you see them live (which is amazing). to my knowledge they don't record these and release them. if you want to hear a different take on your favorite song, go see them live.
I wish this band would perform in Scotland sometime. I absolutely love them right now, and this particular version of this song has made me want to see them even more than usual. Absolutely stunning!
@OOglebooze The live shows left for Fever Ray are very limited European dates. Everyone honestly has a better chance of The Knife reuniting after the Opera for some dates. Either way, Olof has his Oni Ayhun project and Karin will appease her creative side with some weirdly amazing side project.
this song is featured in a new canadian movie from Xavier Dolan called les Amours imaginaires (check it here). The scene is 2 min long, and it is the best scene I ever saw in a movie. Check it one day when it comes to your country...
@rockinawesomeoate : the movie is out only in canada. If you want to know about the movie check youtube under "amours imaginaires trailer" The scene is impossible to find on the net sorry. But when this movie comes to your country, check it it is FANTASTIC. The movie has won prizes in cannes film festival and best movie in the world in Vienna festival.
it would be awesome if the knife came to canada. . .but i doubt they even go to the states! (ps thats what canadians call USA. . .apparently we are the only ones that call them that! lol)
I've only recently found them, along with Fever Ray and their other opera project and I can't remember ever being so excited by music. Really, just amazing. Thankyou Sweden!
The highs and synths are actually from silent shout with pass this on vocals and steel drums over the top. must have been amazing. really want to see them live
yes- the only dvd which is calles AUDIOVISUALEXPERIENCE or also: Silent Shout Deluxe Edition (which are two cds an the dvd with 22 live songst - not just 10 like here in youtube. and the dvd is amazin)
The Knife rarely plays live shows anymore, considering they are taking a three year break while Karin works on her solo project "Fever Rays" and Oolaf works on his dj'ing in U.K. under the stage name "Coolaf"
I like both live and original version of this song, but how do i get a hold of this live version in all its beautiful analog sounding synth glory!? :)
Thanks cr00kie :), i will get onto it straight away!!, and you are Romanian!, i have found that most Romanians that i have met that have migrated to my home country to be GREAT people :)
They are in general... but because some of the rednecks out here and mostly because of the gypsies that live here and migrate in other countries and cause a lot of trouble, we have a bad image... us romanians that is... damn gypsies!
anyway, no problem, have fun... you should find a torrent
Yes one of my Romanian friends mentioned the Gypsy problem, so i guess i have met the true full blood Romanians in the course of the last couple of years, although i have been giving a brief rundown of Romania's most recent history about how it was reclaimed in the early 1900's.
Actually Paris France seems to have a large Gypsy problem also which was pointed out to me by my ex girlfriends sister when i was over there in 2007, i guess many of those of Romanian origin too yes?
its called Tomorrow, in a Year. is a opera put together by the danish performance group "hotel pro forma" and the knife who will be making the music & lyrics (they will not be preforming) for 3 different singers of age and backgrounds,the japanse choreographer Hiroaki Umeda will be doing choreohrapht for 6 people of different age takes inspiration Darwin's thoughts on evolution, change, transformation, and mutation.
will have premiere in copenhagen,denmark in nov 2009
