==Music videos==
The band has produced two music videos for "These Things". One video splices screencaps of various beautiful, young women in seductive, orgasmic poses with snippets of [Adam Bravin](/source/Adam_Bravin) playing the piano and [Justin Warfield](/source/Justin_Warfield) singing. Another video features [Shirley Manson](/source/Shirley_Manson), lead singer of the band [Garbage](/source/Garbage_(band)), and starts off with Bravin and Warfield walking down a city street at night. Without warning, a third man attacks Warfield as he walks past the two of them but Bravin fends him off. A female bystander, played by Manson, comforts Warfield and helps him to his feet, and she and Bravin walk him to a car. The video ends with Warfield's attacker washing his hands in a bathroom and looking up as he notices Manson standing behind him.
