Director Eric David Johnson took a cue from MJ’s “Black Or White,” stringing together a series of phenotypically diverse faces minus the creepy CGI morphing, instead overlaying some colorful cartoon bursts of “bang,” set to the tune’s explanation of Creation. Sunday school kids, plug your ears.

    I don’t think this style of video works at all for the song. It works great for Bright Eyes’ “First Day of my Life” but is just awkward here.

    Boring too.
