Kiosk, Scandinavia and Racism

New video by Kiosk:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ie5qP1lDE_8
I love both Kiosk & Namjoo. They are some of the few Iranian artists after revolution who actually "work" on their music. The video is not that bad. I specially love their cloths.But the video itself seems kind of boring. Anywho I love the song, and the cloths, so this video gets 4.5/5.

--->( the video is actually from Saya Nova's " Colour of the pomegranates". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Color_of_Pomegranates" . The video is beautiful on its own, but I guess it just doesn't go with the music)
Another thing: It amazes me how alot of the good Iranian musicians are Iranians who live in Scandinavia: Laleh, Abjeez or even Arash ( I really don't consider Arash a good musician... but none the less his songs are worth hearing a couple of times). For whatever reason Scandinavian countries seem to be working for Iranian artists. I was thinking it would be a good idea to charter a plane from LA and have those cheesy pop singers live there for a while.

Scandinavia oh Scandinavia, how I’d love to go there… sigh… I remember when as a kid I looked at pictures from Sweden and Finland, thinking those lands are the most beautiful landscapes in the world, envying their gorgeous traditional dresses, wishing I lived in their suburbs… I ADORED Europe as a child, right now maybe not as much, hearing all about the racism there and all…But as “dokhtar lor” says: “tehroon, tehroon ke migan shahre ghashangie, ama mardomesh bade” (This is a very famous quote from the first movie in Persian language,http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lor_Girl, in which a simple village girl from Lur tribes goes to Tehran, and when asked what she though of Tehran she replies”Tehran, Tehran has such beauty, but people there are horrible”). So yeah… europa, europa ke migam shahre ghashangie, ama mardomesh badan.
Then again as a child I never liked China that much... it didn't seem that interesting to me but now as a grown up I'd love to visit there sometime just because I had pleasant interaction with Chinese people in Canada.
