Antony and the Johnsons - Hope There's Someone

I first heard of this artist through a Rufus Wainwright track on which they collaborated, then again when a song of theirs was used on the German soap storyline I followed. Antony's voice sounds like a string instrument to me in parts of this song... So pretty, and definitely melancholy. Yes, this is somber as heck and is about contemplating DEATH, but I think part of its beauty is its relatability. (It's a sentiment many humans share, yet there are few songs about it compared to a very limited range of emotions discussed in the majority of songs.)
