What comes to mind is that little theme at the end of H.G.Wells' Things to
Come. The only lyric are the words "Which shall it be?", an echo of Cabal's
respond to Passworthy. That says it all for me.

It doesn't stand alone very well and the sound on the original is pretty
bad. I wonder if anyone could take that piece of film, maybe starting from
the cannon's firing, remaster the sound, and package it as a video? Do you
think the MTV crowd would turn on to that?
