The instrumental "Marooned" was originally released on the "The Division Bell" album 20 years prior to this music video which was made in celebration
of the album. Here, some of the most amazing visuals ever presented on a music video, with the first part being a mix of real and animated images from the
outer space at the International Space Station, and the second half showing the devastation from the abandoned city of Pripyat, Ukraine, nearby the Chernobyl
nuclear power plant. The somber musical piece works for both settings and scenarios but the concept formed as to why those two were the ones featured in the
video make a valid and poignant connection between each other, as to what the powers of progress and technology can provide to mankind, as being both tools for
reaching out beyond planet Earth but also to keep the planet damaged and unpopulated. We want out because we can't stay here no longer, the damage is already done. A very deep video, and the music is fantastic too. 10/10.
