Music video

The "Lost in Space" music video was directed by Andrew Douglas and edited by Tim Thornton-Allan at Marshall Street Editors.[1] It opens with the band in Rio de Janeiro, with prominent images of the Christ the Redeemer statue; at the end, they return to England, where a long panning shot of the then-recently completed Angel of the North sculpture (which is also seen on the single cover) closes the video.

gollark: "Sadness" is some complex state or collection of states or something which the brain gets in, generally because of a bad thing of some sort.
gollark: Or in my case complex "solid state farming" machines which grow trees in magic boxes.
gollark: REAL minecrafters set up industrial-scale deforestation machinery.
gollark: > emotions tell us as much about our environment and circumstance as touch or smell or sightThey really seem more like convenient brain heuristics than some sort of actual sensory input.
gollark: It's "free" because there's no money, but not actually-free as in it can be produced infinitely with no inputs.
