Witches, Narnia, and LOTR Maintain Internet Stronghold

Looks like the nerdocracy still rules the web.  Chris Dane Owens, a one time unknown now massive cewebrity, takes over the internet this month, with the best/worst music video of the year.  The LA Times blog tells readers the song’s youtube tags — Narnia, LOTR, witches, angels, knights, Final Fantasy, romance, Eragon, ghosts and spirits — say it all, but I think their Q&A with the star himself does a pretty job.  An excerpt below:

I have so many questions about this video, I scarcely know where to begin. Can you give us a brief synopsis of “Shine on Me”‘s plot?

There's a resurrection that happens, that’s kind of my little journey into the spirit realm. My character is kind of touched by the hand of God, if you will. That's where the “shine” message comes in. It's kind of a little resurrection story.

What's going on with the battle scenes and the book?

My character is part of the witches kingdom, which is the second kingdom. I'm actually part of their army and an enforcer, a general, if you will. I meet that young lady Arra who is secretly being trained by the angels and they hand her a book. That book is the book of golden symbols which can only be understood by the spirit, by the living soul. She's being trained secretly to be the queen of this realm, to overthrow the forces of darkness. My character actually meets her and falls in love with her and decides to leave the dark side, so he has an epiphany.
