This is a video made years ago (circa 2006). I can’t remember where the idea came from. Probably from how freaky the Boobah show really is. In any case, here is a freshly ‘remastered’ version with subtitles for all those places where we didn’t know how to improve the audio.

Over the last few weeks I have become a big fan of the RSA Animate clips from theRSA.org. Most of them are based on philosophical concepts and research on human behavior. It’s challenging and fascinating all at the same time. The clip may be somewhat long, but I find it fully worth watching.

Per usual, I Stumbled on this video a few days ago. I’m a sucker for this type of video where cool music accompanies interesting moving typography. It somehow gives whatever they might be saying more weight. But, in this case, the information is actually really interesting. More than worth watching.

Tom McRae has recorded quite a song in My Vampire Heart. I’m having difficulty placing it—perhaps it was in Twilight or True Blood or something along those lines. It’s hard to say, however, as it appears neither Tom McRae nor the song in specific seem to have a Wikipedia entry.

Regardless, the song is outstanding.

Darling I’m lost
Adrift in the dark
I’m clutching your words
To my vampire heart once more
So let in the light
Turn me to dust
If it don’t end in Bloodshed dear
It’s probably not love

Here we are
In the darkest place
My reflection
Shows only your face

Something is found
Something is lost
Went looking for clues
On the streets of old New York
And I spilled someone’s blood
I broke someone’s heart again
Someone you know
You’re looking at him my friend

And the people in our lives
We all leave behind
Leave behind

Here we are
In the darkest place
To keep from forgetting
I picture your face
And I wonder
While we count the cost
Which is sweeter
Love or it’s loss

So I curse you
My vampire heart
For letting me love you
Love you
For letting me love you
From the start

Admittedly, I haven’t been keeping up so much with the whole BP oil-gushing thing. All I seem to know is that it’s really bad and BP is dropping the ball left and right. But, in my limited knowledge, this video really quite accurately represents what I picture in my head when I think about the whole debacle.

I thought this video had some profound implications on the way we consider our lives and faith. Not to mention the culture of love and education in our country. It’s somewhat long, but worth watching.
