What happens when you combine the talents of Russia's ballet bad boy Sergei Polunin, Irish gospel luminary Hozier and photography pop wizard David LaChapelle? Apparently, a whole lot of angsty, sexy, beautiful dancing ensues. LaChapelle directed the new visual interpretation of the Grammy-nominated hit, starring British Royal Ballet vet Polunin performing choreography by Jade Hale-Christofi. The emotive dancer, donning only nude tights and a cluster of tattoos, sautés, tombés and pirouettesthrough an illuminated empty space. The white room clashes with the dark energy of the bluesy song, making Polunin's stunning dance moves resemble some kind of spiritual possession. courtesy Huff Po's,Priscilla Frank ------------ Exclusive: Leaked footage .

Play this.  Play this a lot. No, it's not terribly deep, it contains yet one more animated girl with big eyes who flies, but it will make you feel better, so just play it. Every time you feel crappy. Play this. Cause I plan to. And they say we don't have the money for Arts in Education. Well, to that I say "You're gonna change your mind once you spend one full day without flying."
