The video allows the viewer to control the lighting effects on the video with their mouse or touch-screen device, to epic effect. The track itself has all the grandeur of previous Arcade Fire releases, mixed in with the trademark DFA beats from producer James Murphy. The track builds to a truly epic climax and makes the lengthy wait for Arcade Fire's return worthwhile. The video 'follows a young woman who travels between her world and our own'.
