'''Visuals:''' | '''Visuals:''' Over a black background, a blue circle of light zooms up into the screen, spins around, and turns into a rainbow. It then splits into two light circles, which spin and shrink into a shape that looks like an upside down "T" with pointed ends, most likely representing a thorn. A white box with a blue aura is drawn around the shape, and it backs away. As this happens, a white box with the words "THORN EMI" appears under that box, which has since turned blue, and when that backs away a white box surrounds that, the bottom of which contains the word "VIDEO". | ||
