I love this song. When I close my eyes and listen, he sounds like a black woman. I love that. How does he DO that!?

Wow, I'm impressed and not really a big fan of this kind of music. The video is great - deliberate takes, nice flow of images. Plus, he manages to use common images of fire/fireworks and have them interact with the dancers in a way that's not trite. Good work.
