Trivia

  • Len drew and painted a piece of art while the song was being recorded live via Ustream. A finished music video of the song, depicting the art being drawn in time-lapse, was released an hour after the song hit the net. This is the first time that a fan video and piece of art has appeared so soon after the song was released.
  • Jonathan noted that the YouTube version of the video is a "a blatant violation of copyright," but there is an official version from the National Geographic Web site.
