With this episode, Michael begins "The Rite Of Song", conceived as a "church to art, music, poetry, and philosophy", without the church. 

Each Sunday, Michael presents three readings of the meaningful topics in our lives (love, physicality, spirituality) in a cinematic and sometime ethereal setting. In this episode, he features the work of Glenn Jones and a set of lyrics by Gordan Sumner (Sting).
