    My ex-girlfriend who never really understood civ is a big fan of South Africa and Swahili music. I can't believe I never thought to show her this song.

        Might have helped her appreciate Civ, but as for overall issues... no.

            They did a good job of timing with the audio. I only saw a couple of sequences which weren't quite in sync.

            Sometimes I hate my career. When you do take something which should be fun and do it for a living, somehow that diminishes the experience.

              But it sure beats the hell out of doing something you hate for a living.

                  There's quite a bit of video in there I haven't seen before.

                      It's all stock video from Civ4, Colonization, and old shots from Alpha Centauri. I think the Lincoln Memorial clip was from Civ3.

                        The Lincoln Memorial sequence is from the BTS opening. Just after the pull back of the camera from the statue, two spies exchange briefcases.

                        You don't understand.

                          Baba Yetu lyrics with English translation:

                          Code:
                          Baba yetu, yetu uliye	Our, our Father who are
                          Mbinguni yetu, yetu, amina	In heaven, our, our, amen
                          Baba yetu, yetu, uliye	Our, our Father, who are
                          Jina lako litukuzwe	Let's glorify your name
                           
                          Baba yetu, yetu uliye	Our, our Father who are
                          Mbinguni yetu, yetu, amina	In heaven, our, our, amen

                          Utupe leo chakula chetu	Give us today our food
                          Tunachohitaji utusamehe	We need you to forgive us
                          Makosa yetu, hey	Our errors, hey
                          Kama nasi tunavyowasamehe	As we do forgive those
                          Waliotukosea, usitutie	Who did us wrong, don't put us
                          Katika majaribu, lakini	Into trials, but
                          Utuokoe, na yule, milele na milele	Save us, with him, for ever and ever
                           
                          Baba yetu, yetu uliye	Our, our Father who are
                          Mbinguni yetu, yetu, amina	In heaven, our, our, amen
                          Baba yetu, yetu, uliye	Our, our Father, who are
                          Jina lako litukuzwe	Let's glorify your name
                           
                          Baba yetu, yetu uliye	Our, our Father who are
                          Mbinguni yetu, yetu, amina	In heaven, our, our, amen
                          Baba yetu, yetu, uliye	Our, our Father, who are
                          Jina lako litukuzwe	Let's glorify your name
                           
                          Ufalme wako ufike utakalo	Your kingdom come that it be
                          Lifanyike duniani kama mbinguni, amina	done on earth as in heaven, amen
                           
                          Baba yetu, yetu uliye	Our, our Father who are
                          Mbinguni yetu, yetu, amina	In heaven, our, our, amen
                          Baba yetu, yetu, uliye	Our, our Father, who are
                          Jina lako litukuzwe	Let's glorify your name

                          Baba yetu, yetu, uliye	Our, our Father, who are
                          Jina lako litukuzwe	Let's glorify your name
                           
                          Utupe leo chakula chetu	Give us today our food
                          Tunachohitaji utusamehe	We need you to forgive us
                          Makosa yetu, hey	Our errors, hey
                          Kama nasi tunavyowasamehe	As we do forgive those

                          Utuokoe na yule msiba milele	Save us from this distress for ever
                           
                          Baba yetu, yetu, uliye	Our, our Father who are
                          Jina lako litukuzwe	Let's glorify your name
                           
                          Baba yetu, yetu, uliye	Our, our Father who are
                          Jina lako litukuzwe	Let's glorify your name
                          It's clearly a religious song though no one notices because it is in Zulu.
