“Beyond the Horizoooooone”
I don’t think this was meant to be so intentionally funny. Zander or Zoolander? I don’t know what was more inspirational – Zander running with the children in slo-motion or Zander feeding the goats?
Press release blurb:

Ooh you’re a part of my blog alright Zander. I can’t believe people still make music like this.

I like his hair. Jesus wept.
I bet Bono and Chris Martin are chuffed.
He’s a man of the people. Coming out of his mansion on the hill to take trips with his friendly goat herder.
Someone else remarked
“it’s a great tutorial for all the different ways to wear a scarf in the deserts of africa.”
that’s an amazing find.
…but is it wrong to wish he was indeed beyond the horizon?
That is truly brilliant.
I love his air drumming.
It’s like he was fired from a distant missile silo of creepiness into an African village putting a brave face on things. They probably think he’s from Stargate or Mars or somewhere. Which he clearly is.
Zander’s dreamy.
Amazing, in tears here.
He’s obviously from Finglas.
Nice one Niall 🙂
Loved the air drumming and spasmo sand dune dancing. I didn’t want it to end. Was Chris Morris behind the camera?
The idea/concept of the song is excellent – I really liked the “natural and ethnic” shots in the video, but quite honestly, it’s a bit cheesey.
Some random sexually ambiguous white guy dancing around the desert with camels and in villages in a suit? Wouldn’t jeans have been more realistic?
The music is “okay” but nothing phenomenal. Anyone have the lyrics? All I could make out was the whiny “Beyond the horizoooooooooooooneeeeee”. What exactly is he saying is beyond the horizon? There’s no real message here…
Thanks for this Niall. Say what you will about the levels of douche explored in this video; it’s still better than ‘Get On Your Boots’.
Lest we forget: witness the unimpeachably fabulous Dennis Madalone….

this is awesome!
he has his pout down to a tee though…bless him
there is a moment at 1.36 where he may just have realised how ridiculous he looks
dude needs to eat a sandwich

?
This is amazing.
No. 1 in Germany I would expect.
haha…. The video is meant to be an abstract view of life… The contrast between all different cultures and values of wealth. I wanted to show both the luxury and beauty of two different lands.. Show how happy people are without the luxuries of the western world and display the sheer beauty of the 3rd poorest country in the world.. There is more then meets the eye. My suit i wore for 2 weeks straight.. to highlight the contrast.
Check out my debut music video GET UP on youtube.com/zanderbleck and you can get a better idea of who i am and where i am going… Lots more to come. Thanks everyone for the comments… This is just the beginning

Love the big exit as he strides out of the mansion purposefully, dressed like a billionaire drug baron before hopping on a goat cart to go play football with a bunch of street kids. Man on a mission or wha?
A lovely first touch mind you but regrettably lost the ball to a five-year old.
I like the way he jumps up and down! So much energy!
He’s pretty good at air drums also. Well spoted Lauren! It was these actions that also tipped me over the edge to write a comment about him.
I play air guitar, air bass, air drums and air electric panio in my own air band and I tell you he’s got the goods.
One to watch in the future……..
ZooZander?
Jeez, that Courtney Cox sounds a bit rough.
My suit i wore for 2 weeks straight.. to highlight the contrast.
Batman, my Lackofself-awareness-o-meter seems to be malfunctioning 😉
HAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!
still on the cutting edge i see niall.
I think we’ve found Norways next Eurovision entry…….though, his Earthsong cover is still better than anything produced by “you’re a spa”
