I found this video among the many random videos downloaded over Usenet in recent years. As I usually do, I found myself seeing into deeper levels of meaning..
As is the case with many Euro dance tracks, the lyrics suggest the standard invitation to dance and romance, with the hopes of the transcendent consummation amidst the bliss of music. However the visuals suggested further references..
A black woman in black emerges from shell in a place that seemingly creates identical copies of the same white man in white. However this does not appear to be a racial allegory. From a gender perspective it shows a woman who at first is bound, watched, and controlled in a world of all men. She is pursued by them, becomes as strong as them, and soon returns to face and challenge them back in an act of conscious liberation.
According to a fan site the white tower, which they equated with the biblical Tower Of Babel, is a place that symbolizes the mainstream music industry. She is an independent music artist that does not fit in, but they pursue her to steal the essence of her talents. She becomes stronger after diving into the oceans of artistic freedom and reemerges to challenge all the conforming clones, who soon begin to dance in lockstep to the strength of her influence.
I would also have to concede there are many visual elements suggestive of the Matrix trilogy, as the video was released the year after Reloaded and Revolutions. The clones are reminiscent of the multiple copies of Agent Smith who Neo confronts as she also does. The multiple wall screens with scenes within scenes, also recalls when Neo meets "The Architect" of the Matrix.
The connection to The Matrix leads further into a Gnostic or spiritual interpretation. The human being inside of this world is suppressed, controlled, and watched over by the Archons. She singularly awakens to the point where she can understand and rise to a higher level, but they stand in her way as guardians to prevent her from accessing "another world" that she can now see clearly. She knows they want the divine spark within her that they don't have - her love and affections.. Her feminine spiritual strength that perhaps embodies the wisdom of the universe itself, as she is able to move between the worlds. She draws one of them down into the cubic world of mass we experience here, leaving streaking trails of double helix light in her path. She transforms them, then ultimately is able to lead them. More archons follow as she leads them down.. They have now become the fallen ones..
There are also strong allusions to the human abduction syndrome. Just like the classic grey aliens she notes that "everybody acts to same..looks the same, You have those eyes to see inside of me..." She clearly falls unconscious and is taken aboard a large technological ship-like structure. She is captured and bound to an examination table and closely scanned by a security camera probe. But even in this perspective, her spirit is released and rises to the level where she can come back to "another world" on her own terms..for which she has been waiting all her life to do.. Like the Archons the aliens stand at the threshold, but she can now transcend beyond them. After being captured, examined, perused, and then confronting them back, her dance now becomes coordinated movements of control of them. She can now stand above it all and has passed the test.
