I shuddered! The memories came flooding back, and I couldn’t stop them.

I’m sure she’s a nice person and all that, and I have experienced my share of altered states… but for some reason I’m getting this Vishnu “I am become Time, the destroyer of worlds” kind of vibe from her incessant smiling and dancing atop the cosmos. Maybe it’s the eyebrows?

I saw this in passing a while ago and was kind of waiting for it to show up somewhere again. At first I thought it was Leslie and the LY’s, but they would be sober in comparison, I suspect.

Kudos for the very hip choice of music, Omar Souleyman, I believe,

Someone…somehow…has GOT to get this into the opening ceremonies for the GOP convention later this year.

…Just because…

So, who is going to post about this in the thread about Mind Blowing Movies?

The dancing girl is Sigrún Jónsdóttir and I just discovered a trippy new band.

The video was by Bergrún Snæbjörnsdóttir. Now I have an understanding as to how Icelanders can believe in elves.

The occasional cleavage was okay too. Music was good, psychadelic freakout was stellar, but it needed way more of her dark-haired friend who showed up only briefly at 1:49.

and such a cliche, too! Learn the clarinet, join a Balkan pop orchestra, get access to a green screen. Dime a dozen.

It’s the Omar Souleyman version of Björk’s Tesla.

I suspect Sigrún Jónsdóttir might be too busy touring with Björk as a musician.

Watching the original video made me laugh all over again. It makes a lot more sense in context. That is, if “sense” is the right word when talking about one of the members of a giant Icelandic klezmer group doing ironic go-go moves on top of psychedelic video.

Thanks, BoingBoing! Not only did I enjoy this video, but the YT suggestions led to a great cache of weirdness.
