When I Surfaced.

(Sex On Fire - Kings Of Leon)

White giants all around, surrounding me far and near. The water was placid and the white giants reflect boldly in the sea. On the surface horizon, I could see the reflection of the greens and browns dabbed with red on the white giants' feet. The peircing blue behind them was crisp as the sky. Intermittent fog creeps along the surface. Daybreak would come soon and the sun would rise to shine down and slowly diminish the white giants' facade, reflecting golden yellow. As dusk falls, the giants become silhouettes hazed behind a background of pastel watercolored hues. The water is no longer calm, as it resembles the whitewashed clouds. There is no trace left of the looming refracted light, as the white giants surrender to the dark. The half golden moon shimmers in the water and the pastels have become a glow gold haze around the new giant in the sky.

Love the use of vocabulary here.

As for Bond, I am not really a fan either. In the words of Daniel Craig, I think, the actor who plays him, 'He is high class pain, Bond leaves me hurting'.

The song rocks - I would never think to put Alici Keys and Jack White together, and they go together. Really strange.

Actually, I had no idea it was Alicia Keys. And was quite stunned to find it out, as it was a nice twist to music for the time with a certain appeal I could appreciate.
