The karaoke origin story of Bobby Service and Black Waterfall. Two Queer best friends living under the shadow of religious repression. Around this time, the Ted Haggard scandal broke — the Colorado megachurch pastor and vocal opponent of same-sex rights was exposed for hiring a male escort, using methamphetamine, and allegedly abusing boys in his congregation — a perfect symbol of evangelical hypocrisy.
In the video, Service and Waterfall turn these contradictions into camp spectacle: beginning as club kids at the nightclub Prisms, they are tormented by televangelist messaging before exploding, with a Wonder Woman twirl, into flamboyant preachers themselves. The soundtrack mashes up rewrites of Joan Osborne’s One of Us, t.A.T.u.’s All the Things She Said, and AC/DC’s Highway to Hell, with musical nods to Tammy Faye Bakker and Enigma.
