Lyrics
Kings and sons of God
Travel on their way from here
Calming restless mobs
Easing all of their, all of their fear

Strange times are here
Strange times are here

Statue in the square
Meant so much when it first stood
People come from far and near
To bless them if, bless them if it would

Strange times are here
Strange times are here

Sadie, dry your tears
I will be the one
To pull you through the mere
Before you come, before you come undone

Strange times are here
Strange times are here
Strange times are here
Strange times are here

Fuck, this movie is awesome! Fuck, this vid is awesome!

This captures the weird millennial paranoia of the mid-90s perfectly. Love the music choice.

Thank you so much! I dithered forever over the music, wanting something futuristic yet noirish; I'm glad to hear it worked for you!

Thank you! I spent longer choosing the music than building the vid, so knowing you appreciated the match is quite gratifying! :)

Thank you! The movie is chock full of creepy with an inexorable momentum, so I was definitely inspired.

Ugh, I love this movie and haven't seen it in way too long. Wonderful vid. Along with all the movement and chaos I love that you made room for some really nice moments of intimacy between Lenny and Mace.

Thank you so much! Lenny would be so screwed without Mace, so I wanted to include her as much as possible, for both kicking ass and supporting him.
