"Viðrar vel til loftárása" is a song from Sigur Rós's second full-length album Ágætis byrjun. It was also released as the B-side of the single Svefn-G-Englar.OriginThe band named the song after a quote sarcastically spoken by an Icelandic weatherman during the war in Kosovo: "í dag viðrar vel til loftárása" (meaning "Today, it is good weather for airstrikes.")Video"Viðrar vel til loftárása" spawned a cinematic and controversial video. Set in 1950s Iceland, it features a kiss between two young boys which is broken up by the father of one of the boys and a local priest during a football (soccer) match. Jónsi makes a cameo appearance in the video as the soccer team coach, and the fetus from the Ágætis byrjun album cover is shown on a bottle from which one of the boys drinks.Production for the music video began in the autumn of 2001. A general casting call was held in the town of Reykjavík, Iceland, which was also the place of principal photography. The video was directed by Icelandic directors Stefán Arni and Siggi Kinski. The video has won numerous awards.Viðrar vel til loftárása (Buen tiempo para un ataque aéreo) es una canción de la banda islandesa Sigur Rós, de su segundo álbum Ágætis byrjun. Fue lanzada como el lado B del sencillo Svefn-g-englar.VideoEl videoclip de la canción es uno de los más conocidos de Sigur Rós y también de los más controvertidos.

Mental! But in a great way. I think we need to see other SR videos done the same way now.BTW, you put in your notes that Jónsi was in the video. Actually, the whole band are in it. Georg is the referee, Orri is a linesman and Kjartan is impossible to see as a spectator.
