Pick a picture...

We've had a number of emails from supporters following the screening of a new video during half-time at the recent Aston Villa and Manchester City matches. The 'Pick a picture' video has one of those soundtracks that you know, but you don't - so what is it?

Well, we can now put your minds at rest. The track that accompanies the two minute video is called Hoppípolla by Icelandic band Sigur Rós. One of the reasons you may recognise it, is that it was used on the BBC's Planet Earth TV series in 2006.

The video was produced by the media team at the club and made it's debut during the final minutes of the half time period, and was again screened at yesterday's match against Manchester City, greeting the arrival of the teams for the start of the second half. For those requesting us to make it available online...sorry, but due to the copyright of the video footage and music rights we're unable to.
