“All your life / You’ve been waiting to be free / Trade your pride for ecstasy / That’ll make you / Reach the sky” – Sadeness (Part II)
Last August I acted in a music video for the band Enigma‘s new song Sadeness (Part II). The song was released in October.
What do you think? …I’ve noticed both the song and the music video have had mixed reactions from hardcore fans. I don’t know how to to talk about music, so I won’t say anything about the song. Some fans have asked if there’s a version of the video without pixelated-private-parts. Well I haven’t come across one. I guess I could start claiming that that’s actually just what I look like naked.
The story in the music video has two characters – a dark, brooding monk and a mysterious seductive woman. You’ll notice that I played the latter. At first the mysterious woman is a luring temptress.

And in the end, it turns out…well, I shouldn’t spoil it. So I guess you should just watch the video.
