Nov 28: The Summer that never Came

Thanks to Ben Hennig for this story from Reykjavik Grapevine of the video to Jonsi's new video from his new album 'Shiver'.

It shows a Reykjavik rather different to the usual drone shots of snowy vistas....

As they say, the video:

"...takes the viewer through the streets of everyday Iceland. Not the beautiful frozen landscapes and mountain vistas most associate with Iceland, the video shows some of the characters you’d likely bump into on the streets of Reykjavik – from kids in gymnastics classes to rough sleepers, and everyone in between.
The song, which showcases Jónsi’s trademark falsetto vocals and whimsical synth sounds and works with the video to create a moving piece of art that feels both joyful and melancholic in equal measure.
