Love is Dead

Today when I was exploring SL. I saw this some how wierd video of Kerli.
The video of her single 'Love is Dead', directed by Josh Mond, the title track from the pop artist's debut album. The haunting piece presents Kerli in a reverse journey through time, beauty, and love. Influences from Kerli's affinity for creepy fairytales and darkness appear throughout the artistic video. Watch it below.

'Love is Dead'

This is the hardest part
when you feel like you're fading
All that you have has become unreal
collapsing, and aching

All I want, all I want is right here
but love don't live here anymore
(love is dead, love is gone, love don't live here anymore)
love don't live here anymore
(love is dead, love is gone, love don't live here anymore)

I know that you think of me when you're
beside her, inside her
It must be so hard for you to
deny it and hide it

Oh, all I want
All I want is right here, but love don't live here anymore
(love is dead, love is gone, love don't live here anymore)
and love don't live here anymore
(love is dead, love is gone, love don't live here anymore)
x2

love don't live here anymore
(love is dead, love is gone, love don't live here anymore)
love don't live here anymore
(love is dead, love is gone, love don't live here anymore)x4
Oooh,love don't live here anymore

Kerli Kõiv (born February 7, 1987), better known mononymously as Kerli, is an Estonian singer-songwriter who is known for her pop style and her album Love Is Dead which charted in the Billboard 200 at #126 in the summer of 2008.

Love Is Dead is the debut album by Estonian recording artist Kerli, released in the United States on July 8, 2008 by Island Records. Produced mostly by David Maurice, the album mixes different styles of music throughout the record, such as alternative rock, industrial, electronic, metal, and trip hop. Kerli wrote the album in over five years. During an interview with entertainment website andPOP, she mentioned the album's subject:
“ A lot of the songs I wrote when I was really depressed, and then the later songs I wrote after coming out from my depression, so the theme of the album pretty much is overcoming obstacles and overcoming the darkness. I’m really grateful for all these experiences because I believe that until you are absorbed by darkness you can't overcome it and face the light. ”
Originally due to be released in April 2008, the album was pushed back to July 29 and then pushed up to July 8.[4] It eventually gained a wider European release in 2009 with a release in Italy in February, in Germany in April, and in Austria and Ireland in summer 2009.
