Safe and Sound - Capital Cities

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=47dtFZ8CFo8]


OK, let's just say the song is kind of catchy, but it's not one of my favorites or anything I'll probably actively seek out to listen to again. The song isn't nearly as much the reason for this post as two other things. One of those things is pretty closely related to the song, and the other one isn't.


First, I love the concept of this video.  I like the idea of them being projected onto the stage by the spotlight, and it all keeps going from there. The only thing I can imagine better than that is if they could've used more recognizable classic dance scenes...Gene Kelly doing his routine in the rain, Michael Jackson moonwalking, etc.


The other thing is not related to the song at all. I can't stop thinking that the guy with the beard looks like a short, smaller version of Zangief from Street Fighter...  You can see the comparison below for yourself.
