Kerli - Love Is Dead

Music video by Kerli performing Love Is Dead. (C) 2008 The Island Def Jam Music Group

[@laracroftvideos]

This woman is a genius whose career was almost ruined by money hungry record labels who had no idea what to do when they actually signed a naturally gifted strong artist with a clear vision for her art. Glad she's independent now. I love this music video, and the message. She morphs into the young beautiful Kerli we know now, but the truth is that she's radiating beauty the second the video starts.

[@xx_built4blame_xx]

True

[@MahlaMetsaMari]

she didnt became illuminati (y) good

[@xx_built4blame_xx]

@@MahlaMetsaMari welcome to 2019

[@viajantefuturo9116]

she became independent but her new sound is terrible. whatever

[@asamadigan2293]

Reminds me of Stargate Atlantis

[@gmariman5]

hauntingly beautiful, it's a shame more people don't know about Kerli

[@natedogs212]

2nd that

[@C4ssieRose]

I agree! :)

[@nubsauce2010]

Totaly agree she is so amzing.

[@GamingAnomaly]

I found her by accident about four years ago when surfing KZbin. Absolutely love her works. She's very talented and unique. Her and Anneke Van Giersbergen are two of my favorites that I have set on a playlist to listen to when sketching.

[@williamnorton9547]

Dustin Murphy Kerli won my little black heart when I saw her perform Walking On Air on the 2008 Spike TV Scream Awards.

[@mionsonozaki911]

Letting a broken heart eat you up can make you feel old and ugly; letting go allows you to move on from that pain and eventually see the beauty that you truly possess.

[@iim2flii305]

Well said. Well said.

[@mrpeachees2388]

Old shouldn’t even associated with ugly. They are completely unrelated. Just because she looks older in this video, doesn’t mean she’s ugly.

[@AdamtheRLSilent]

You completely missed the point lol

[@beingweirdisnormal625]

Mrpeachees I think you missed the point

[@LolaErickson]

What you wrote is so wonderful. Thank you for sharing it.

[@simplynessa15]

I still love this so much

[@simplygummypaws6335]

ahh Vanessa💟 and yes same

[@averi397]

omg, vanessa!!!

[@keg10609]

that's funny cuz im subscribed to you. so cool how you like this song too.

[@Harpie.]

+Simplynessa15 omg you love kerli too? Yess!

[@raquelalas6238]

Yesss

[@makurradoshi4498]

I was 11 when I first heard these songs, love is dead, walking on air, creepshow... What a time that was. Kerli was one of those artists who caught my attention as a sad girl with a lot of angst and curiosity for dark, fantastical things. I was listening to Evanescence and Black Veil Brides, watching Coraline, Alice in Wonderland and Repo! The Genetic Opera, using this gift I guess you could call it, of escapism.. to be other places in my mind, to survive the pain of my young life. There wasn't anywhere else I felt I could breathe but in art and music. Making worlds, friends, adventures, through this sort of surreal, spooky lens. Shockingly I'm not a basket case in an asylum or idk a serial killer, like they all thought I probably would be.. lol, and I have art and film and this music to thank for getting me through

[@lstokes1231]

A sister indeed. So much love for you ❤️

I wish Kerli would return to music like this.

She is going to. Listen to Better And wait for the Shadow Works.

[@Elvthron]

I loved her music when I was 14. This one was my favourite song of hers, I used to find it calming in some odd way.

[@5GcE]

Lyrics: 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 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) Love is dead, love is gone, love don't live here anymore (Love don't live...) 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) Love don't live here anymore

[@Babyfaceti]

"Love is dead" "Love is gone" "Love don't live here anymore"

[@Riyoohkey]

Best part imo "I know you think of me when your beside her, inside her"

[@SamoJeanne]

Riyoohkey that part always makes me tear up

[@artie6041]

Has "inside her" a sexual connotation? I hope no! Maybe yes, but it would be very explicit. What do you think about this part? Thanxs

[@Riyoohkey]

Music Lover I figured it was something sexual I mean when your having sex with someone other then the person you liked or loved then you would imagine you are with that person

[@artie6041]

I know that you think of me when your're Beside her, inside her It must be so hard for you to Deny it and hide it well, it's like this verse belongs to her ex talking to her heart, right? the rest of composition is Kerli the real person behind its lyrics. (her heart too?!)

[@lydiaandmakeup7223]

Of course it is sexual. People cheat and deny thier lovers because inside we are monsters who feel nothing.

[@LaZebraCrossing]

my 2008 emo soul loved this song.. and still does

[@chelseawright9482]

Being the " firsts" to find her on KZbin back then in comp class was my thing lol. Takes me back.

[@Sal_The_Alicorn_Blader9]

This is one of my favorite music videos of my childhood

[@mushroomcactus6617]

Me too!!

[@kyanhmixing8835]

If you’re still listening to this in 2020. You are truly a f*ckin legend

[@geoffrey121148]

11 years ago time flys !

[@geoffrey121148]

@Baskerville Fallen Pleasure meeting you how are you doing ? Hi from Texas

[@sprintingwolf76]

This was the first song I heard from her back in 2009. She recently stated that when she sang this song, she was addressing it to all the people who had hurt her over the years, but at the same time, was finding strength in the singing of this song to not let it get her down. She is an awesome young woman who is quickly maturing into her own.

[@margaretlindsay9969]

Kerli is awesome. She was a very good friend of mine on MySpace. Till MySpace went to crap. But we still have Kerli. I am a 58 year old women and I love he music and songs. Keep making people happy with your music.

[@laserbeamchaser]

i miss this kerli, the pop kerli is good but i love rock kerli. maybe less bubble and more goth ? lol

[@beernutz]

This and "Hurt Me" are BOTH amazing

[@KendylTV]

I'd actually more or less call this pop rock or alternative pop. Her newer music is more dance-pop/electropop ish. I like this, but I feel like she's grown up since then. Less whiny, more mature.

[@Daya1828]

Well, it use to be called alternative rock when Alanis Morissette was popular. Alternative pop is just weird labeling. Pop rock -- maybe.

[@RainSenju]

ikr

[@nebulous6320]

She has said the next album will be darker than Utopia. Kerli stated that in the utopia period she COULD'NT write a dark song but the new stuff will be darker

[@carlapolli568]

2019 ❤️ Just because I miss old Kerli

[@KandiKid757]

Still listening in 2023, still love her style❤

[@17joren]

In one song, Kerli conveyed the message that Taylor Swift took dozens of songs to do.

[@korykent5645]

"love don't live here anymore" song by rose royce. it's been done

[@LuckyFlesh]

Kory Kent Everything has already been done..way before you and I were even born.

[@ezrealxshsh5460]

LuckyFlesh not everything.

[@LuckyFlesh]

Karmelowe Frappe True, just 99.9% of everything. Most things are just expressing the same basic things with a slight twist.

[@LuckyFlesh]

Karmelowe Frappe "Now in nowadays we can healing cancer so how everything already been done?" You can't even construct a proper sentence.

[@brennanbussell2035]

Life isn't easy. this is honestly one of my favorite songs of all time that let's me know that life is sometimes hard for example a loved one passes away. eventually after the first time experiencing the first hard thing of your life you realize that that's how the process of life is and then you know to be prepared for upcoming hard events that could happen in your future and how to handle them and also to know that we are not alone because everyone experiences these things especially people with PTSD like me.

I remember her, from the late aughts! Love Is Dead and Walking On Air were my fav. She had that otherworldly goth pop going on.

[@fakename658]

14 years later and this song still gives me chills

[@DragonMum13]

Why doesn't this Magical artist not have more subs? She is so damn under-rated!

[@EmmySoc]

This is by FAR my favourite song by Kerli. it's just beautiful.

[@meccalucas7822]

A million years later and I finally found the song!!

[@tanyah6655]

sobbing to this rn bc my parents showed this to me as a child and kerli was my favorite artist, walking on air and tea party and this song specifically. so much has changed since then..for the better and worse..

[@FeminineDresser]

I felt more love in my childhood, now love is practically dead. 😢

[@ILoveLyricsGirl22]

I always feel like bacon too Kerli, it's cool @0:30

Love Don't Live Here Anymore broke my heart for Kerli forever

[@vrepitsa1083]

I’m 13 but I just discovered this and now I’m addicted 😂

[@nikid3690]

I thought I'd never find this song again!!!! Haven't listened for over a decade!!!

[@Princesados17]

This is the hardest part When you feel like a fake 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) And love don't live here anymore ( Love is dead, love is gone, love don't live here anymore) I am all 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 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) (Love is dead, love is gone, love don't live here anymore) Love is dead, love is gone, 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) (Love is dead, love is gone, love don't live here anymore) (Love is dead, love is gone, love don't live here anymore)

[@Go0nzaah]

"All Is Full Of Love" by Björk is the inspiration behind the song, CLEARLY.

[@dianehatton6147]

She should keep the style of her music like this, beautiful song

[@THEBONYGLAMB]

So nostalgic. Used to listen to this song everyday after high school. I miss those times 😌😌😌

[@rendb7015]

every song of Kerli's is "peak Kerli." Everytime I hear her I'm just taken aback by how amazing she is

[@SamoJeanne]

This song fills my soul for some reason. I wish I could have known about this song sooner

[@Gamerina1985]

Samantha Shahbozian same over this way😊

[@brubsbruberry]

Such a beautiful song and video. I love the “cold foggy day” vibe it brings me. It also reminds me of a time when I was really happy but didn’t know it.

[@jamesheart2333]

No love is not dead . I love those who still hurt me . I wish them all well . Tidings. Remember what is to be a child . I seen fairies. I saw the world was wrong ? Mean ? Angry .. Broken promises n unconditional love . I will remember that we all.syffer . Some more than others . But we are all living a narrative in a story . Our story the biography . What will we die bye. Evil alone hated ,soulless.?? No never I've more love and hope that I've cut those out n kindled n found a spiritual family n path

[@katherinewinters5674]

This was the soundtrack of my childhood--period,

[@kennylangley1997]

You can literally feel her voice. And the drums are super.😎👍👍👍🔥🔥🔥💪💪

[@Bevinnia]

I'm so glad Kerli is getting bigger and bigger. Unlike a lot of people, she knows what she's doing, and is sticking to what she's happy with. I love her :D

[@Government389]

That is the best Kerlie song ever in my opinion. Very dark and haunting

[@CoversByLayton]

Those puppy eyes at the end

[@PaytonGibs99]

i love how this song and video was made, so much emotion and realism. from old to young and just everything else it's hard to explain just (art).

[@sarahcline8488]

If you really listen to the song she is baring her soul and I am assuming someone had hurt her in her life, its so powerful, thank you for sharing. No one puts Kerli in the corner! you rock girl

[@babyloves563]

I love kerli she's amazing and beautiful

[@gunterpatee4963]

I had to replace my Kerli pillow four times. Too much information?

[@deannaalvarado9973]

2021 listening still feels relevant for me today

[@Thursdayschild726]

I can't listen to this song without shivering; it's beautiful.

[@dang9669]

Kerli is Brave! she is beautiful the whole video! hope she is writing music when she looks like she does at the start!

[@tommywillard5403]

Gorgeous video

[@payneme678]

This brings back some nostalgic YT

[@lunari1408]

When you know what this song feels like. You know true pain. Realising that and letting go is truth. Don't live in denial it hurts longer and you go mad.

[@TonyRedEyes]

This girl sung her makeup off. Dang!! This song is AMAZING!!!! Too bad she's underrated!!

[@JedzLigsay]

Im back Kerli. I missed listening to your songs. Brings me back to the days I first encountered your music even prior the videos were posted.

Love is here, Love you Kerli ❤️ You are an amazing Artist & Beautiful Person.🌸🌼🌻

[@karolmilao010378]

Musica perfeita!A Kerli é incrivel,a voz dela é simplesmente inacreditavel!!

[@SuperMsizzy]

I still remember when she first posted this to her Myspace love this song

[@gmedeiros5748]

Another Pandora’s box Kerli opens and allows them to rage .Brilliant.

[@Jadensamma]

I think it's about breaking off the shell of a wasted love. You feel so "old and worn out" by the end of it, but then you say "enough".

[@chiran80s]

Really Miss This KerliVEVO ❤

[@williamnorton9547]

Joseph Ono Go to OfficialKerli and you'll find her most recent stuff.

[@chiran80s]

+William Norton I meant that I miss this style, not something else. I known Kerli since her origin and from there I have not lost track of her. I love her and I'm happy that "Shadow Works" her second studio album, has a big connection with "Love is Dead" her debut album.

[@idk-rw9sy]

Bittersweet memories

[@mosespray4510]

Kerli's mix of theatricality and outrageous creativity reminds me of Kate Bush when she first started blowing the doors off music in the '70s. How she isn't a mega star is beyond me.

[@jadenaddams3674]

This was a perfect representation of how holding onto a love that just will not happen can wear you all the way out, so you have to backtrack to where you were before it happened. You can't get rid of the regret of your wasted time, but you can, at the very least, recall who you were, and move on, hopefully wiser from the experience.

[@TeapartyKerli]

Even when I have seen many videos in my life , I have to say that it's one of my favourites , because the budget for this video may be low , but it is interesting to watch even over the years and never really seen something similar to this. (JUST AN OPINION)

[@davidxronan]

Uma das melhores músicas dela. Nada comercial, e sim #profissional . Parabéns Kerli. Te Amo

[@blakebradshaw263]

NO!!!! Kerli is one of the best artist!!!

[@allessandmegchannel]

There's soooo much history to this song for me

[@winstonchaychel]

Still one of my favorites!! I love the new album, but this has to be one of my favorite pieces. Thank you, Kerli!

[@Morgana_Vita]

i just realized that she gets younger and younger as the video goes on.

[@conejomartin]

Kevin Grant jajja stupid

[@calypsorose3080]

God Martín, rude much??

[@Morgana_Vita]

i might've been stupid to not realize right away but, considering that the video doesnt really add more to the song itself i didnt focus on it. instead i focused on what she was saying. so i honestly dont really care if me not noticing right away was stupid.

[@FaeJewelle]

Bobbie Wolfe you're not stupid! I did not realize it at first either. It's impossible to notice something like this right away

[@jrocknpoppingirl]

It might not seem like it has anything to do with the song but it does. It's almost as though something happened to young Kerli that scarred her or made her lose faith in love that lasted for the rest of her life. Seeing her at the start, it's like seeing a typical old crone type character who has lived a hard life and lost faith in love over years but as she de-ages over the music video, you see that it is something that really did start long ago that made her become that jaded old lady who doesn't have faith in love anymore. Just my opinion.

Oh, I love Kerli's new phase, I really do, but I miss this so much. This pain in her songs. Although I'm glad she's finally happy.

[@3geargamesstudios]

I love her new music so much Feral Hearts, Savages, Blossom, Diamond Hard the sound and the videos are so beautiful and artistic it's like being transported to a magical kingdom and I think that's what her art has always inspired.

[@tiffanygordon3171]

It really pisses me off when people compare a stunningly beautifully unique artist to any other artist from the top of their head.... -_- shame.

[@gunterpatee4963]

The genre is Ballads, however. As a ballad, its meh. As a song its fucking EPIC!

[@MeitavKovach]

I was looking for another song but I found this one instead.. Glad I found this one.

[@LeelaZestrella]

Story of my life. Love Kerli forever

[@pamelapap]

i don't know why but this REALLY reminds me of BJORK's song All is Full of Love… hummmmm

[@hikarissanctuary]

Two opposite messages, but that makes sense because she was inspired by Bjork in her youth.

[@onurdenizozdemir1874]

Brooke Mckenzie Yea think that is intentional. Opposite messages, same melody. She wanted to be kinda deep or sthg.

[@leahragdoll]

She was very inspired by Björk. If you look at some old interviews she explains that. 😊💜
