Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeros' New Star-Studded Video for "Kisses Over Babylon" Released

Categories: Video Clip

Part II of Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros' video cycle was released today, and it's a beautiful, star-studded affair that sees Sharpe wandering in the desert, getting picked up in a vintage car, and taken to jail. Directed by Isaiah Seret, it features some pretty big names, including the great Academy Award nominated David Straithairn (best known to most for his work in Good Night and Good Luck, though he'll always be baseball player Eddie Cicotte, a member of the notorious 1919 Chicago White Sox team to us, a role he played in John Sayles' Eight Men Out). In addition, you'll note actor Dermot Mulroney, best known for his work in My Best Friend's Wedding, and Sandy Martin, who plays a creepy Mormon in Big Love.

Having Mr. Lif open for Chali 2na and Gift of Gab basically just proved that he's at least as good as they are. Made me wish he'd come to the West Coast more often.

Have you ever done the math on how much energy is in the magnetic field of any magnet.
