Yeah...a reverse kind of Mos Eisley-instead of the band being ugly and alien, the band is beautiful, and instead of the crazy creepy aliens at the bar, they would be beautiful LA people. And we all know beautiful LA people are sometimes inside-ugly. That's what I see, and I'm not changing my mind. |

—It looks like one of the oddball videos they play on LOGO that make no sense and have nothing to do with the songs they're videos for. I say it's an improvement over the Telescope Eyes video because the set and the filming were top-notch... but even for a band like Eisley, I wasn't prepared for this kind of a time and money-consuming flop. The Marvelous Things vedeo was a gem and I miss its beautiful simplicity. Please come back down to earth Eisley, please? _________________

Wow. So the blond was cheating on the astronaut with the other guy, and she ended up sabotaging his space suit, or the airlock, which sent him flying into the abyss. When I saw Chauntelle first walk into view I got excited like when I see them walk onto the stage at a live performance. Was anyone else surprised to see how diminuitive Sherri looked at the beginning? Stacy, of course, hypnotic as usual. I think the guys needed a bit more screen time.

I'm one of the ones who didn't enjoy the Telescope eyes video much, at all. During the shooting are they asking themselves, "Are we making a video that's visually pleasing?" or "Are we making a video that conveys the message of the song?" or ""Are we making a video that's weird and silly regardless of other factors people look forward to in them?" or do they just get stuck with a director and go with the flow as it emerges? Weird and silly can only take us so far people. It should be used more as a tool for building than as the foundation for the entire project. But that's just me, and I'd be more disappointed if the music itself was executed poorly than when the videos are. So all in all, no big deal. It's not like good artists haven't made bad videos in the past too. Remember the eighties? _________________

The conversion to quicktime suffered a bit, so that one is a bit poorer - like a little blurry, but it's still OK. They're both 320 x 240. |
