The song was released in 2006, and was a huge hit with an already existent video. The 2009 video was dark, unnecessary, and you couldn't see the lead-singer (who was attractive). It was a fairly generic workers-gotta-rebel kind of thing that had been done quite a bit since the 1981 Apple "Big Brother" Mac spot, and the studio decided it wasn't worth polishing.
Good find.
I'm discovering a lot of pertinent lyrics in late 80s, early 90s house and dance tracks lately.
But that's another story.
tag for later
