50. Sigur Ros: 'Viðrar Vel Til Loftárása' – Set in 1950s Iceland, the cinematic video tells the story of a young boy, presumably gay, whose father discovers him playing with dolls. The dad reacts angrily and forces the child to play football where he angrily berates him on the sidelines. Controversially it then shoots to two separate scenes of the boy and an equally young male friend kissing passionately on the field before they are torn apart.
