Grimes is unquestionably one of the most futuristic pop stars, but she's taking a moment to look to the past by celebrating the 10th anniversary of her single "Genesis."
Yesterday evening (August 22), Grimes tweeted a gif from the "Genesis" video showing her brandishing a burning sword in the desert. She tweeted that "this day changed my life" and thanked her fans.

The self-directed "Genesis" video came out on YouTube on August 22, 2012. The song comes from the album Visions, which arrived about six months earlier, so Grimes is specifically referring to the video as being the key release. Visions received a 10th anniversary reissue earlier this year.
Since her tweet about "Genesis," Grimes has already set her sights back on the future by tweeting, "im excited to welcome our ai friends into the beautiful journey of creation with us."
