_ Lights Out, Words Gone has probably one of my favorite videos that we have.
_ We basically set up a competition where people could submit their own ideas and their own
videos and someone just sent this three minute clip of this, I suppose it's like a weekend
dance _ event that they have in a square in this rural Mexican town.
I think it's probably common all over the country that elderly folk get together and
dance.
_ And it's just that for three minutes, but there's something so [F] beautiful about it and
it really fitted the song well. _
Just kind of, there's pure happiness in these people just dancing and enjoying music.
_ _ _ _ It'd be interesting to listen to what they were really dancing to, because to us it was
probably some [Ab] fast paced kind of acoustic.
_ And shortly after we finished the video we were playing in Mexico City and actually stumbled
across a very similar scene.
And Lucy Rose who sings on the song went and had a dance with some old [Abm] man.
_ [Bb] It went full [Ab] circle.
