The video is semi-animated, filmed and then overlaid with computer graphics to give an animated look. A lot of it is set in the desert and features pick-up trucks with suggestive paint jobs driving round and round. Eventually they crash into each other and the paint jobs (one of sperm IIRC) are smashed together to give the impression of a man ejaculating into a video. Oh and there’s a belly dancer in there somewhere too.

All I can think of is the name “Queen’s of the Stone Age” which I think may be a real band name but apart from that I’ve no idea 😕

[Queens of the Stone Age](http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&token=ADFEAEE57A1FDD46A87F20D79C3053CBBB72E00DDB51F8813E23454D92BB345C910E7ED749A0DAB0B8B67DAB7CB0FD2EA45F43D6C0EB51F6DD622D4CF0&searchlink=QUEENS%7COF%7CTHE%7CSTONE%7CAGE&uid=MIW040508050557&samples=1&sql=11:dsu1z85aoyv4~T1) is indeed a real band. Perhaps you can find a sample of the song you are looking for by looking at their albums.

Sorry I can’t be more helpful, but I have no TV, and thus no EmptyVision to have seen the video.

Good luck.

I’ve registered with an MP3 download site that lets me stream tracks from albums for £0.01, but I can only listen at work to streamed tracks as I have poopy dial up back home and the boss likely wouldn’t want too much music in here.

I’d ask my mates but the one guy who has their album is away taking things easy so I can’t get hold of him too easily.

The song in question is **Go With the Flow**. Awesome video.
