This group could make anyone want to move to Iceland.

Can't believe it's been almost 13 years since I've found out about this band, their music really helped me in my sobriety.

[BrutalToad]

He's crying because sometimes it isn't better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all.

[applearana]

I am hopelessly in love with this band.

[daniiel]

You know that it is a great band when their songs sound better on live than the album version

[TravelerVolkriin]

They've helped get me through the past 3 years of my life.

[chives]

One of the few bands that don't lose quality when listening to them live

[misledsarah]

I have adored this song for years. The haunting melody is so beautiful and the emotion is amazing. So glad to see that this band is finally getting the recognition they deserve.

Well, maybe I'm a crook for stealing your heart away
Yeah, maybe I'm a crook for not caring for it
Yeah, maybe I'm a bad, bad, bad, bad person
Well, baby, I know.

And these fingertips
Will never run through your skin
And those bright blue eyes
Can only meet mine across the room filled with people that are less important than you.

All 'cause you love, love, love
When you know I can't love
You love, love, love
When you know I can't love
You love, love, love
When you know I can't love you

So I think it's best we both forget before we dwell on it
The way you held me so tight
All through the night
'Til it was near

If you hear this and don't feel anything you gotta work on that. Forgot about this group until recently and you can see the co-frontman/singer tearing up after that performance and trying to hide it by wiping sweat. This song is extremely emotional without trying to be so. It just oozes genuine emotion.

[Lesserevill]

aww it's ok big guy, don't cry. hugs...

[jewelsegulahleahgreen]

This band has written 8/10 of my Summer playlist :)

[singmusicdanc]

I am so glad I watched an old movie today "barefoot" and discovered this great band. Great song for this psychological brokenness between 2 people.

[DJIgorNSOFC]

Voltem aqui pessoal, não se esqueçam dessa obra de arte!!!

[emoriorisdottir]

They make me so proud to be an Icelander. Seen them many time in concert and they better and better each time. Perfect.

[kaylaboo]

I fell in love with this song the first time I listened to it. I'm obsessed with it right now. Oh and for some reason Ragnar Þórhallsson reminds me of Samwell Tarly from Game of Thrones lol

[marinasiegel]

Who the hell in their right mind would dislike this masterpiece?

[kennedyistanum]

Of monsters and men rock!!! Best band. Wish they could tour America this summer.

[alejandromayorga]

At the 00:17 you can see he knew the song was going to be emotional for him.

[The_guy]

I love this song. I love it for the message and the tone used.

How many rock stars and rap stars have wrote songs calling girls bitches and hoes all because they said no to going out with them?

Answer

A LOT

This is the only song I know of that actually talks about the rejecters point of view.

"Cause you love love love, even though I cant love" 

The rejecter is not happy about having to reject, the rejecter never wanted to be put into the position where she/he has to knowingly crush a persons heart. Its not a fun situation for either party. And I love the fact this band had the balls to write a song talking about the rejectors point of view.
