“Magic” was actually released in The Sound Of Arrows’ native Sweden in January of 2009, but because it’s being released in August as a single in the UK it finally got a music video to go with it. I’m guessing it’s all part of a big push for their debut album, which logic dictates should be coming out the end of this summer. And you know what? Two and a half years just happened to be worth the wait for a proper video. Basically we’re getting teased with a trailer for the best Spanish 80’s sci-fi kids movie never made. You have no idea how much I wish this was a real movie. I don’t really want to spoil the video by discussing what actually happens, so just watch and see for yourself:
Two years ago they did make an epic 80’s themed living van art video for their single, “Into The Clouds,” which you can see below.

Earlier this year they actually came out with a new song, “Nova,” and a video very similar to “Into The Clouds”. I’ll let that pass though, since the song’s still pretty darn good.
