    one of the best music videos ever! what a concept...amazing. this should be in a gallery, instead of a lot of "art"

    great idea! but a bit too much irony in the development of the idea...just doesn't have the edge it should. beautiful sets though...can't decipher if the directing is so flat on purpose, to mimic the style of (very "flat") music videos of the 80s, or is it just bad directing...that part doesn't work for me anyway...very stylish though and a great song. the catch in the end is also so trivial (maybe it's on purpose as well, but again doesn't work)..love the 80s, but I think it was enough!
