The music sounds like one of my favourite Lucky Dube songs.
This reminds me of some advice I was given about perpetual check: a
knight on the square laterally next to a king gives maximum protection
from q-checks. I.e, King on e7, knight on d7 or f7, oe even e8 or e6.
Very useful knowledge.

The bishops protect each other and there is not much the queen can do.
There are some cool-looking patterns. Who is the singer? It doesn't
really sound like Brel....
