<=== serious question

D&D: Beaver ... latest one is Truly Madly Deeply. little indecisive about the 4th single- could
possibly be a song called 'Violet'

tour starting April 24 in Perth.

violent.

songs..

KiWi: where did the idea for that video 'moon and back' come from?

D&D: Kiwi..the video was based on the lyrics I guess but the production company talked with
Daniel and I alot. We really like the movie Brazil and 1984 so we referenced a lot of that
imagery..Daniel says David Bowie..

KiWi: i just wanted to know about the flying around on wires bit :P

D&D: Kiwi...the wires sucked

D&D: actually most of the vid was the wire stuff and it looked stupid so we had to re-shoot it.
