    Wow! That got my blood moving.

    Some serious Odd Nerdrum influence here. And I mean that in a good way.

      Sure is. SO weird. Anybody want to explain that one?

    Great video, fantastic song. This is the first I’ve heard of Woodkid. I just downloaded his EP from iTunes and the whole thing is great.

  • rewhu

    Daaaaang.

    I wish that this video was based on a graphic novel so that I could read some back story. I want to know more about the people, the animals, the environment. Or this video needs to be just one clip from a four hour long epic movie.

    Don’t leave me hanging, man.

    • wierdbeard

      Agreed.

  • shanealeslie

    Well now, wasn’t that just FUCKING AWESOME!

    • MrScience

      Yes. Yes, I believe it was.

      • Donald Petersen

        I concur.

        I don’t love the music, but the video more than makes up for any musical shortcomings I might perceive. Besides, my musical taste is pretty wretched.

        This’d make a nifty video for Jethro Tull’s “Broadsword.”

        See? Tin Ear Petersen, that’s me.
