Conheci essa banda através da MTV Brasil em 2010 - os clipes de Windstorm e I L U passavam no Lab Now. Achei o som bastante diferente do que já tinha ouvido e gostei muito. Como só via a banda na MTV, não cheguei a conhecer outras músicas deles, nem mesmo o nome de seus integrantes, e acabei deixando-a de lado em meio a tantos outros artistas que surgiram. Mas em 2016, num dia qualquer, Windstorm me veio a cabeça. Corri para o RUclips e, cara, foi aquela nostalgia... Essas músicas me fazem lembrar muito de quando eu tinha 13 para 14 anos, fazem-me viajar pelas memórias daquela época. Foi aí, em 2016, que eu descobri que a banda era composta por Benjamin, Alejandra e Claudia, que as duas eram gêmeas - quando vi Windstorm, não percebi que havia duaa mulheres, hehe - e que, infelizmente, Benjamin havia morrido. Conheci mais a fundo a banda, ouvi as músicas de seus discos, e me apaixonei enormemente por eles. Hoje, sempre que ouço suas músicas na minha playlist, sinto um sentimento de liberdade, de coragem, de alegria. Obrigado, Alejandra. Obrigado, Claudia. E obrigado, Benjamin. Descanse em paz.

Sim, sim. :) A propósito, você costumava assistir ao Lab Now? Estou tentando encontrar o clipe de uma banda que tocava também em 2010 neste programa. Era um clipe em que as pessoas viravam uns zumbis estranhos que soltavam uma gosma preta pela boca. Se souber, dê-me um toque, por favor. Meu insta é @cadufaria42 ;)
SVIIB is a cut above the rest. I was privileged and blessed to see them live. Benjamin is an eternal soul. You could see it onstage. Very magical. All of them. When they took the stage, with their makeup and costumes, we entered their world. And that's how the show went. When it was over, instead of mingling and chatting it up with people, they quietly left the way they came in, and returned to their tour bus. If other bands did that, it would have felt cold or ungrateful. But they were different. Theirs was a performance in the truest sense of the word. It was as if they appeared from another time and place. Their exit stuck with me. They didn't want to diminish the music with their personalities. You could sense that. They were humble, grateful, graceful and filled with love of music and life. I will always remember that night. I sure hope they continue to change lives for the better. They are good at it.
I wish this song was around in the early 80s I could have given it to the love of my life to make her understand how deeply I loved her so so much. I couldn't express myself as this did as I was a hideously shy teenager.
Watching the day break And fighting the urge to sleep 'Cause my dreams won't let this die All I can see and hear In the dark is you And it's hard to breathe 'Cause all I feel when I do Is this aching heart
I had the pleasure of interviewing Ben Curtis on 4zzz in Brisbane Australia a year before he died. I had lost the interview into the realms of cyberspace that will not be retrieved again. We have lost a brilliant songwriter so so soon. Just imagining what else he would have created if he was still here. Embrace the music and keep it alive.
I really enjoyed this, even made me feel a little over emotional. To feel the embrace of someone and dissect it... Dissect each other, to the point of overwhelming sensual satisfaction... To really feel love in your heart for another individual. This is beautiful.
I love this song so much and it featured in my dream last night 25 april. I sang along to it in what felt like real time . This is a first that its been a song as I take medication for my TBI and there are stages in my REM sleep that slow right down and feel very lucid.
Brrrrrr aeee salveeee Eu tbm curto muito. Sempre venho ouvir para refletir mais sobre minha vida. Quando conheci esse som era uma época bem Mágica na vida minha vida. Boas memórias, bons sentimentos. Abraçaooo
This video reminds me of Bjork's All is Full of Love video. Good song though, I've been looking for this band since I first heard them, and that was a few years ago!
Be not a afraid. Just by my breath i can can place all this god-forsaken matter, uplift it, and cast it into the greatest depths. Take up the valiant perogitive and know that the truth is with thee. And victory has her accomplice. It is Athena
Song really reminds me of Type O Negative's softer stuff. Man I love SVIIB. Please Alejandra continue these beautiful melodies. If not for the fan then for the memory of Benjamin Curtis continue on.
Concordo contigo. Conheci essa banda na Playlist Mtv Teco Apple. Há muitos anos já... Nos trás uma boa energia. Sempre venho ouvir para lembrar da Humanidade que há em mim. Bons tempos. Boas memórias.
It just occurred to me: this is a music video made for a song that came out in 2010. MTV was done with music videos by then, weren't they? Where would this have been shown???

Rest in Peace, Ben Curtis. your work with SVIIB and Secret Machines will be remembered forever
One of my all time favorite songs, so full of nostalgia....and pure love...reminds me of someone.
One of my favorites from the album. Each album is different and beautiful in its own rite. Tragic ending but what a legacy to leave behind.
I’ve yet to hear a song if theirs that’s not hopelessly addictive…👊❤️💐
R.I.P. Benjamin. Great band. I'm happy that I got to see them live.
This is so freaking sad and beautiful damn it....

Conheci essa banda nessa mesma época tbm. Época boa demais, obrigado MTV ♥️
Thank you for the music, Benjamin.
I can hear the Abba influence with Ben’s vocals from “knowing me, knowing you”
SVIIB is a cut above the rest. I was privileged and blessed to see them live. Benjamin is an eternal soul. You could see it onstage. Very magical. All of them.

You're lucky. I discovered their music after Mr. Curtis passed.
This is so good it hurts...
I wish this song was around in the early 80s I could have given it to the love of my life to make her understand how deeply I loved her so so much. I couldn't express myself as this did as I was a hideously shy teenager.
Sounds as if the song was conceived in the 80's, it would have fit in so absolutely well back then.
on repeat
on repeat
Watching the day break
And fighting the urge to sleep
'Cause my dreams won't let this die
All I can see and hear
In the dark is you
And it's hard to breathe
'Cause all I feel when I do
Is this aching heart
Amazing song. Way to capture an emotion.
So glad i heard this song being played on the radio in Scotland :)
Perfect blend of music and art - beautiful, haunting and innovative. LOVE THIS!
Such a good song....hope it gets 1 million views soon.
her voice makes me all calm...

this song cools me down even when I am stressed at work :). It's incredible
Amazing song ❤
This is the soundtrack to so much of my life
I really enjoyed this, even made me feel a little over emotional. To feel the embrace of someone and dissect it... Dissect each other, to the point of overwhelming sensual satisfaction... To really feel love in your heart for another individual. This is beautiful.
this really feels like a song off of Type O Negative's October Rust album. Puts me in a fall and wintery mood. Thanks SVIIB.
i hope you enjoyed our little joke therah
This was on the playlist in the store I used to work at, took me ages to find what it was called and SO glad I did!

This reminded me of "All Is Full Of Love" by Björk. It's so lovely ♥

Chicago International Puppet Theatre Festival! Let's Go, Let's Go!
Best video I've seen all year long! where have i been?!!! My new favorite band. Don't understand why only 86k views...
amazing track. wow
Interesting how they harken to many bands from back then, however they still have their own style, I'm thankful that they are around.
The very best from the band ❤❤❤❤
This video reminds me of Bjork's All is Full of Love video. Good song though, I've been looking for this band since I first heard them, and that was a few years ago!

Same assotiation right from the beginning, you`ve got a nice catch there, dude.
Yep. This has a more rustic feel to it, haha!

They will be in Detroit Apr 30th.......Hope they perform this song, would like to hear it live.
Adoro essa música
Não conhecia essa banda vi o clipe na MTV e gostei bastante,me faz lembrar a banda Cocteau Twins dos anos 80.
Concordo contigo. Conheci essa banda na Playlist Mtv Teco Apple. Há muitos anos já... Nos trás uma boa energia. Sempre venho ouvir para lembrar da Humanidade que há em mim. Bons tempos. Boas memórias.
@@JhonatanNeneh Sim traz uma energia muito boa

nossa, eu amei esse vídeo! *-*
Please get a new video for this song
This is weird but I love this song
I seen some exhibits at the st louis art museum like this
a couple more days till she sings live in LA
Just watched this on MTV, didn't know it was from S7B, kept watching all the way for the credits...
@supersteevo1000 So true! I'm so lucky my brother raised me on good music like MBV & don't forget Slowdive!
this just lead me to stories about Ben's death. RIP
@supersteevo1000 well said sir!!
they´re so fucking great i´m almost afraid of them.",...
This song is epic, the chorus are ok, but the verses are fantastic
it's about breakup sex/breakup. Husks making love being pulled by the strings of their true self/emotions but really connected just acting...
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😅
Found this because I heard the remix by Phantogram, which is excellent....but I think I like the original even better!
Mtv Teco Apple.
there's so many things...
Supoib.
No se como acabe aqui >:u
I want you to know that i love you.
who disliked it? WHO DISLIKED IT?!...show yourself!!!!!
:((((((
só tem brasileiro aqui? haha vi na mtv de madrugada.
It's like a Tool video but not terrifying. It's actually really nice.
It's like she prophesied her mourning of Ben Curtis
You forgot Ride!
4:33 :D
@kristimcdaneld68 Tell me about it - I well up every time!
Because, as we all know, the majority is always right, LOL.
hmm like the sound, kevin shields influence bigtime.
*****
Great song, terrible video. But this isn't the 80s; can't get the whole package. Better than nothing I guess.
contemplating responding to a 1 year ago comment.....
great song! video is a complete rip off of bjork though
Great song but this is weirder than some of Tim Burton's stuff. lol
