Vision One, another Röyksopp song:


There was a time when all the shadows of these tall buildings
Would throw their cape around each corner of the grassy fields
And one by one, each huge shade, would color the green with black;
Allowing changes that we could not have foreseen

Everybody let us gaze upon the world we've created
Let us rest our eyes up by the great machine, as we wave goodbye
Feel the evening breeze caress us while, the cities are dying
As we watch it fall into a modern state, a modern time

Remember when we'd hear the distant sound of human life
A zillion noises whimper as they traveled through the sky
And one by one, each new sound, has faded away with time
Allowing changes that we could not have foreseen

Everybody let us say goodbye to all our notions
'Cause it's not enough to say that we're humane, when we're left behind
It's too late to think that we can worship human emotions
'Cause we've already evolved into machines, in our minds

Röyksopp is one of my favorite groups, and apparently they have a new CD coming out next month called Junior.

Besides just their music though ("Remind Me" is that song from the GEICO commercial that I love so much), they have really great music videos.

This song, "Happy Up Here," is from the new CD, and has a great video which channels a bit of Space Invaders:

They've got all of their videos at http://vimeo.com/royksopp/videos

But I want to share three more :).

This one is "Only This Moment," another song I like, with a video which is supposed to have something to do with the 1968 Paris Riots:

"What Else Is There?" is one of my favorite Röyksopp songs, although the video is kind of weird:

And then finally, a video I've posted before, but this is much better quality; the video for "Remind Me," which won the 2002 MTV Europe Music Award for best music video, and is definitely my favorite music video:
