KanYe West Shoots 3 Videos for One Song

DeLon · 06-23-2004, 04:56 PM

Recently KanYe West released his 3rd Single for his album "The College Dropout", named "Jesus Walks". KanYe was so eager to spread his message of the song to the people, that after he shot the first video (using $500,000), he wasn't satisfied and shot another version, (his original intent was to shoot 5 but the company said that's too much money), the third version is in the process of being made...
Have you seen these videos, If you have, please post a link.
I myself saw both versions
One version, the first shot, is named the "Church Version"
And it shows three people, A drunk bum, ex-prisoner, and and Ex-stripper, who encounter different things and eventually get to the Church KanYe is preaching at. The drunk bum is saved by an Angel who's guiding traffic, who allows him to cross when he's about to run into danger. The Girl is being chased down by some preverted man, she is saved and pulled over a fence by angels, the ex-prisoner, is shot and killed, then brought back to life by an angel.
As all enter the church, church members stare at them, because of the way they look. At the end they are saved. I left much detail out, so that youmay expierience the video first hand.

The second video is a lot deeper.
Three men are shown: A prisoner who represents Jesus, a klansmen, and I can't remember the other (I've only seen this version once) It is more of somethign to make you think, REAL hard, at the end, what I remember most, is that the Klansmen has a cross that is burning, he is holding this cross as it catches on fire, he drops the cross, but is on fire, it then begins to rain, and drowse him. This is to represent baptism

My ultamite question:
Have you seen these?
What do you think?
How did it make you feel?

I've seen the church version and the one with the burning x behind him. What's intresting is that both of these were on the same channel.
