Hi,
First, I can't honestly speak for the visual aesthetics of the video because
I can't see... 
But just the same, it made plenty of sense.
You might want to edit one place where you said b-major, but meant b-flat as
it only takes one molecule of "mis-speak" to have us all driving on the
wrong side of the road, so to say. 
The only other possible negative I noticed was in the loop you used, at the
point where you go up from g-minor to (I think) b-flat and then f...  The
chords might be more pronounced, more strictly diatonic to drive your point
about using the same lick in g-minor as you use again in b-flat. 
The backing track, or at least one of the instruments in the track seems to
be playing an f suspended? (f-b#-c-f) chord.
What if you went "straight" b-flat, f, b-flat, f... Etc?
But the positives trump all such trifles... And yes, I see your point about
War... Although I heard... Not "City Country City"... But "They call me a
(groovy??) Gypsy man..."
So keep 'em coming!!
Thanks,
Brad Trainham
