I still have never heard a voice quite like that of the androgynous Antony Hegarty of Antony and the Johnsons. The video for “Thank You For Your Love” by Antony and the Johnsons is comprised of footage that Antony shot when he first arrived to New York City as a teenager in the early 1990’s. The song is taken from the new album “Swanlights” which is available to pre-order from http://www.swanlights.com.
MOG said it perfectly:
The clip beautifully captures those last drops of teenage youth after moving to a giant metropolis like New York, and how the trying on of various identities speaks to both the freedom and loneliness of that transition.
