I"m really not a typical negative commenter. I think this is a fantastic performance, you're right, There are only a few bands who can bring that quality. I also would emphasize the live singing of her, beautiful. It's almost perfect. This is the hardest part of the live performances. BUT. All the other "instrument", effect, vocals you hear is partly the job of the "sequencer". The sequencer is the principal for the "studio" sound. It's important to mention that;)

That machine was so cool and futuristic. I bet that future flying machines will no doubt take clues from the design of that machine. Some type of new propulsion technology. And that house/base that Jack and Vica worked/lived from was incredible looking as well. I'd love to have a house in that design, including the pool underneath!

[@Turrican60]

Jo Van Seeters: It's one of my favourite films, too. Oblivion is much deeper on so many levels than, perhaps, a lot of people seem to appreciate. In fact, I think it could well become a cult classic in years to come. Just a small correction, though: when you say "Becca", I think you really mean "Vica".
