The quality in that video isn't great, but I like seeing them live - I love the white suits. Here's a vid with much better audio quality, and a neat site with (roughly) translated lyrics.
The song is so hauntingly beautiful... Speaking with Leandro about poetry and such he brought up an interesting point: The most beautiful poetry is poetry about loss and heartbreak.
Maybe when we are at our lowest, most vulnerable point we let down our defenses and let out our true feelings. Maybe when reading someone else's work, we find beauty in feeling or knowing that someone else is feeling like we did or do, or solace in knowing we're not all alone.
Still, I like to think that there's plenty of beautiful poetry about love, and other emotions, that isn't sad. Maybe we don't notice its beauty so much when we're already happy about something - or someone.
Just a thought.
