| I always figured this song was about california. In particular hollywood. When I say hollywood I mean All that hollywood is and stands for. Hollywood= will do anything for a buck, and the bullshit that mentality produces. Who knows? thats my take on it. I have some proof. And I ride down the highway 101 (U.S. Highway 101 also known as the pacific coast highway or PCH) By the side of the ocean headed for sunset. (literally an ocean sunset? Probably Sunset boulevard. Approximately 22 miles (35 km) in length, the famous boulevard passes through or near Echo Park, Silver Lake, Los Feliz, Hollywood, West Hollywood, Beverly Hills, Holmby Hills, Bel-Air, Brentwood, and Pacific Palisades)* perhaps the most diverse 22miles in california. You drive through some of the seediest parts of L.A.(west hollywood) through the most affluent.(beverly hills) Makes me want to drive it again while listening to this song. *http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunset_Boulevard | |

| Nuclear war? yeah. Industrialization? Capitalism / communism? This video is set in Russia along the "101" with a skyline polluted with every ugly nuclear injdustrial generator for profit I can imagine, just an ugly surreal, scary landscape of what a country's quest for power has become, and how this direction is not beneficial to the quest for spirituality, growth, and evolution so far away from the "minds eye". Andrew knows it, we know it. Everybody should. I suppose the great white pier has something to do with the blinding light of a nuclear blast, or maybe not? If someone wishes to emphasize feel free but all I can see is the black polluting by-product of mans futile conquest for world domination and phallic achievement. | |
