Alphabet of Nations - They Might Be Giants 2005

 Several Flags appear in the official music video for the song Alphabet of Nations by They Might Be Giants.

Zimbabwe is the fun part of song, kind of like the five golden rings diddy in the 12 Days of Christmas.
Suriname is in South America and they speak Dutch.  Here a Surinamese girl accidentally holds up the flag upside down.
A little Norwegian girl smiles with little flags of Norway behind her.




Andalusia Virginia Tilt Flag


Andalusia is the most southern region of Spain that nearly touches Africa.  In fact most of this Spanish federal subject is aligned with Africa rather than to Europe, thus it deserves a Virginia Tilt flag.   

Interesting snychronicity is that after Islam expanded in spirit into Eastern Europe, by capturing the foundational City of Bible, Constantinople converted into a Islamic center and received her an Islamic name - Istanbul.  But a few years later the Islamic Nations in Western Europe were expelled - Al Anadlusia being one of them.   As Islam would gain a foothold in Eastern Europe, only a generation later to loose it Western Europe. 

The Siege of Grenada in 1492 by Christian forces on and Islamic City was cosmically balanced to the Siege of Constantinople in 1453 by Islamic forces on Christian City.

As the 15th Century saw the lights of Christian Constantinople go out, so to would Islamic lights of Cordoba be silenced into oblivion.  Just as the once great Christian Hagia Sophia became an Islamic Center, so to would the Grand Mosque of Cordoba convert into a Church.

Komi's Trinity Flag

The Komi Republic a nation within Russia.  The Komi are kin to long lost cousins of the Estonians.  Very distant cousins but cousins nonetheless.  The Komi Republic is due north of Asia and Africa thus it qualifies for a Geographic Trinity Flag.

Flags in Shadows of the Night - Pat Benatar 1982

 In 1982 several Nazi and American Flags appear in Pat Benatar's video for the hit single Shadows of the Night.  It seems for better of worse Nazi flags will always be sought after, especially in Hollywood movies.

This video takes place in the secondary imagined reality.  It starts off with a machine worker - Pat Benatar - dreaming and or wondering about her mundane factory worker job. 
 Notice the US flag as she gets into the cockpit of the Midnight Angel.  The Midnight Angel that amazing stroke of luck or assistance that comes the stroke of midnight. 
The US flag can be seen at the mission briefing.

Positive or negative - every thought has a power of its own.  Here a mix of wonder with dash of American Patriotism stir the imagination of someone with a 'small' role to play.
