Inspire has a truly inspiring tone and an amazingly sunny tune. Nameless, whom we will call Adam, has gone (to the Maasai Mara) and done it, all within sight of the great and imposing Kilimanjaro. This is without question his greatest song -- ever.
And it just goes to show that great and greater potential and talent may lie untapped and perhaps unsuspected even in those who have already scaled heights. Nameless has obviously worked very hard to let us have Inspire, on a platter. But listen carefully: the very first sounds that you hear in this music video are from paradise!
WATCH: Inspire, the Video
The cinematography for Inspire is itself inspired, and clearly reflects great experience with this kind of work. The story line is simple but very effective. The expansive savanna, allowed to show itself off, is breathtaking. The elephants are keeping their due distance from all this -- this affair that's beyond their comprehension. Everything is so very cheerful, and so fun.
Under all the bright and endless sky, we see only Nameless and "baby girl". We are back to the future here, folks: back to Adam (with a swag) and Eve (she who sings and hums with an angel's voice), and only they. This is the happiest and most flirtatious Eve that anyone has ever imagined.
In sum, Inspire is a very romantic song in a romantic place. It's all very "biblical".

Update (January 13, 2018): Though the real name of the Eve of this spectacular video is not given in the credits, she does actually sing in the video. We do hear her voice, and it adds discernible value to the song. According to Mpasho, she is Maureen Waititu -- a Kenyan lawyer, model and mother.
