Through the Lens

My winning entry for the Through the Lens film competition during the 2012 Queenstown Bike Festival. The six months that I've spent in Queenstown has been nothing shorter than amazing. This place has not just some of the best riding in the world but also a booming bike scene and extraordinary people. This video is an homage to all of Queenstown - a best of the best from an amazing summer.

 If you mean the Wolf Gang song then I think it's like a pre-release before the album came out or something. I've had it on my computer for a year, think I got it from iTunes.

 I cant find that version of king all of his men anywhere....

 I have not heard it anywhere online and can't really remember where I got it from. I've had some sort of pre-release of the album for about a year now, it includes the following songs:

Back to Back
Lions in Cages
Night Flying
Pieces of You
The King And All Of His Men

 Read the rest of the comments and you'll figure it out...It's probably a pre-release of the album version, and yes it's a lot better than the one they released!
