I don’t care how great the musical sound, or how “stunning” the visuals are, it’s the worship of anubis in that concert that totally turned me off.
I love music and was drawn to watch this video because of that love of music. The drums, and bells have such a lovely effect, and the backdrop of the pyramids all add to the magnificent timeless grandeur, I remember how I felt when I stood in Cairo and first saw the pyramids standing right on the edge of the city, it was like passing through a “time rift” from modern to ancient. So, I was loving this video right up until the visual effect of anubis strutting in the background while the crowd swayed almost hypnotically to the music. That’s when I turned it off.
