God, I just never get sick of that. When I start getting paid and have money to take ASL lessons again, I think I'm going to ask my tutor if we can spend a session deconstructing all the signs and classifiers in that video, because there's so much I still don't understand.
I don't know ASL really at all, so I can't follow, but every now and again, I can say, "OK, the lyrics just said *this* and he made a sign for *this*(probably)". But then, it often doesn't sync with the music, and I get confused.
This is very much a conceptual rather than a word-for-word translation. So, for instance, in the bits where the song is going "My reach is global, my power is pure", et cetera, he's just using different and increasingly more emphatic signs indicating megalomania.
