Transcript:

The videoclip shows a young male with long hair frenetically moving sideways as if he was playing an electrical guitar. In the place where the guitar would be, he is holding a large piece of paper, wearing an elastic band around his neck. With his hands he mimics the movement of playing, he also uses a red pen simulating a prick, with which he has marked intensively the paper. On the background a sign with the words “Set the world afire” is hanging from a business suit.
