This has always been a favorite of mine, since it first aired on MTV.
Donald Sutherland, Kate Bush, and overtones of pseudo-science conspiracy books (of the "Chariot of the Gods" ilk), which I all but breathed in during my teenage years.
I love this video but the elaborate cloudbuster always bothers me. One of the reasons the FBI decided Reich was committing fraud by selling them was that they had no apparent working parts; you could not describe that machine thus. But for Kate Bush and Donald Sutherland I'll forgive it. As long as we're on Reich-related rock, I obviously have to add this, Hawkwind's `Orgone Accumulator': http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=haYICUXCF38 Probably not quite safe for work; if that's a problem here is a less Staciacal version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FOA1tp4SNvg My duty is done here!

Dieselpunk, but I'll take it.

Happy memories.
