Official music video for the dark and melancholic song 'Vera' performed by the artist 'Elinborg' taken from the same-titled EP 'Vera'. 'Elinborg' is from the Faroe Islands (a small, autonomous group of islands belonging to the Danish Crown). I think this is an informatin to share here, because honestly I have never heard of Faroe Islands before. But as we all know, you never stop learning.
I know I use the Björk comparison quite often here. Even more often than I would like. However, in my opinion Björk was a small musical revolution in the electronic music scene in the early 90s. So the comparisons, like this one for the song 'Vera', are always meant to be extremely positive.
The cool electronic synthesizers, with a lot of dense atmosphere, perfectly underline the acoustic sadness. The voice is crystal clear and sounds wonderful. Unfortunately, my Faroese language is a bit rusty (cough) and I can't understand a word. I hope for future songs in English.

Lyrics of 'Elinborg – Vera'
Blátám
legst yvir gluggan ein kyndil
sløknar og leggur spor
Í ósjónliga luft
Eitt naki likam
ein særdur kroppur
málar mítt hjarta blátt
sorgarbundin
og ein vera
nú myrkablá
myrkablá
Hvørvisjón
Í eini søkkandi
verð dryppandi
vætar tú meg
Támgrá luft
tekur og blæsur meg
til eitt brennandi skin
og ein vera
nú myrkablá
myrkablá
myrkablá
