"God Told Me To" is the first single from Australian songwriter Paul Kelly's album Stolen Apples.
The song deals with a fictional character called John Johanna, on trial for murder.
To explain his actions, John defends himself by saying that God told him to do this.
The video was directed by Natasha Pinkus, and was filmed in a single shot.
The video was nominated for a Dendy award at the 2007 Sydney Film Festival[1] and won the 2007 Inside Film Award for 'Best Music Video'.
