Antony and the Johnsons ‘Thank You For Your Love’

[vid]

There’s something hauntingly mesmerizing about British-born lead-singer Antony Hegler of Antony and the Johnsons.  Though their songs aren’t our typical faves (we’re big into the upbeat hits), we can’t help but be overwhelmed by his voice – unique, lasting and spellbinding. Anyway, the group just released the first-single from their upcoming album Swanlights and it’s just as gorgeous as the track itself. Shot in black and white with a raw-film feel, the video – featuring a transvestite and a burning fetus – is packed with meaningful imagery.  Maybe that’s why we love them – one of the few musicians left WITH a lasting message.
