LA 1976? No, Sydney 2011. I love all the little details they went to get this right.
The blond woman in the vid is one of the producer/directors. I love her music videos. She makes them look like classic movies.

The voice sample in the track above is from an Alan Watts talk. The middle part is what they used in the song but I’ve added a bit more to put it in context.
[tab]…"Everything is standing right out in the open, it’s just a question of how you look at it. So you do discover when you realize this, the most extraordinary thing that I never cease to be flabbergasted at whenever it happens to me. Some people will use symbolism of the relationship of God to the universe, wherein God is a brilliant light, only somehow veiled, hiding underneath all these forms as you look around you. So far so good. But the truth is funnier than that.
It is that you are looking right at the brilliant light now, that the experience you are having that you call ordinary everyday consciousness–pretending you’re not it–that experience is exactly the same thing as “IT”. There’s no difference at all. And when you find that out, you laugh yourself silly. That’s the great discovery.
In other words, when you really start to see things, and you look at an old paper cup, and you go into the nature of what it is to see what vision is, or what smell is, or what touch is, you realize that that vision of the paper cup is the brilliant light of the cosmos. Nothing could be brighter. Ten thousand suns couldn’t be brighter. Only they’re hidden in the sense that all the points of the infinite light are so tiny when you see them in the cup they don’t blow your eyes out. See, the source of all light is in the eye. If there were no eyes in this world, the sun would not be light. So if I hit as hard as I can on a drum which has no skin, it makes no noise. So if a sun shines on a world with no eyes, it’s like a hand beating on a skinless drum. No light. YOU evoke light out of the universe, in the same way you, by nature of having a soft skin, evoke hardness out of wood. Wood is only hard in relation to a soft skin. It’s your eardrum that evokes noise out of the air. You, by being this organism, call into being this whole universe of light and color and hardness and heaviness and everything." ~Alan Watts…[/tab]
