   Hey, it’s the guy from ER!

   It was a good short film but as a music video I’m not sure. Having watched it I can talk all about the little story, the visuals etc. The only thing I can’t talk about is the song. The film took over and the song ended up more like a film score that wasn’t meant to draw attention to itself. Of course maybe it’s just that the song isn’t very good!

   I know what you’re saying - and can’t argue with you really, except I think it’s a very good way to market music despite what you say… for example, I would not know UNKLE at all except for the ‘Rabbit in Your Headlights’ music video. I couldn’t, even now, tell you what the song sounds like (except it’s got Thom Yorkes voice) but I remember it because of the incredible video.

   Similarly, remember the Daft Punk video with the human dog fellow? Same deal… if you hear a song once, and it’s not a catchy pop tune with a one word chorus, it can be hard to retain information about it to reference it later. If you have a visual of a guy with a timer on him, or a guy being knocked down repeatedly by traffic, or a human dog person, you have a reference to dicuss it or look it up later…
