5 Weirdest Moments In Arcade Fire's 'Reflektor' Music Video

3. The Floating Disco Ball

Floai Another item that the fake Arcade Fire seek out, the large floating disco ball, would fit in perfectly in a Stanley Kubrick film. They stand around it (see above) like the chimps discovering the Monolith in 2001: A Space Oddyssey. Later on, large headed Win and Régine shine torches on it, and the entire crew treat the item like some sort of religous object, touching it with reverence. There is more a mystical quality about the disco ball later on in the video, when members of fake Arcade Fire stretch their hands out to the floating ball, like they are connected to it. It's almost God like, which gives the video more of a religious depth to it's already odd nature.
