This was so strange I had to Google him but stopped with the first two
paragraphs of a LA Times article, which pretty much summed things up.

An Internet star is born: Chris Dane Owens to singlehandedly slay bad
economy on horseback via new music video

"So why all the fuss? Let's just say that Owens, along with director
Robert Short, has made either the greatest, or the worst, music video of
all time (that looks as if it was shot in the 1990s, and sounds straight
out of the 1980s), depending on your taste.

His YouTube video tags -- Narnia, LOTR, witches, angels, knights, Final
Fantasy, romance, Eragon, ghosts and spirits -- pretty much tell you
everything you need to know . Watch the video above, which was filmed
earlier this year over five days in various California locations. Our
interview with Owens is after the jump, wherein he reveals the secret of
his awesomeness (hint: it's anime)."
