LOL that's craaazy.

It was, wasn't it? Very artistic. Maybe I'm a fan girl, but I especially enjoyed the kiss. Was that just me?

Anyone wanna discuss it at length? ~DJ

can talk about this because it’s one of the two videos that I have actually seen (thanks Jules) I can indeed talk about it: )

I liked the long panning shot down the street and into the window.

Eric appears to have a blue guitar that doesn’t need quite so much playing and yet makes the same sound… cool!

Adam has lost his clothes and then Eric is reversed in the mirror.

The freeze frame element of the whole piece with a ‘real time’ singer character works really nicely. The office scene is nice and I like the health and safety poster in the background (yes I notice detail).

This kiss was nice he leaves the office and leaves her in a dead end, boring one presumes job… (Runaway!)

He stole CornMo’s bike and coffee, the bike is forgivable.. the coffee… NEVER! And the Lo the band formed …
YAY! the Troubadour ……

And the girl from the office is in the audience so she is having a good time as well…. YAY!

In summary, I like it a lot and it matches the song really well, the boy’s done good, I prefer it to the ‘How to lose’ video.
I personally thought the camera work and the editing was far superior on clear Channel, although it is lovely to see the roof top gig that people reported about.
Ok I that was me trying to be critical, but hell I like them both,they are shiny!( but I like Clear Channel a bit more: )

Very interesting. I like it.

Cool stuff. instant gratification without the download bar! Did anyone try the voting on this site? Looks like you might have to watch 2 hours+ of video to possibly get around to Clear Channel in the judging ;0)? *plays with site* disclaimer - that is me playing with the ourstage.com there, just because have-keys-will-press. But .. all bias aside .. it is by far the best music video I've seen there today (and no - I have not watched videos for 2 hours ;P)

I like the How To Lose vid (was that the rooftop gig in New York?) but it can't compete with kissing and nudey bits and bicycles and Adam jumping for joy and the look on Corn Mo's face when his coffee gets stolen. I like the bits on the bus and the way it's all jerky, it just makes me want to jump for joy too.

The rooftop gig was in LA, but I didn't see any clips from that in the "How to Lose" video...?

have you found the music video Stef ... not the documentary... on the music & vids page- it is ALL about the roof

Oooohh I totally missed that! Thanks Julia!

I am totally in that video too, and relieved I don't look like crap. lol

you totally are!! Looks such an awesome evening. Love the fact there actually was a living room up there .. from armchairs to carpet to ornamental bear! It deserves a separate thread too but I'm lazy!

the couches and armchairs were nice, but the condensation dripping from them, not so much. :P

ah! soggy!

Clear Channel zoomed up the order to #43

...if you watch the video and then "JUDGE" you get one unregistered vote before the site makes you register to do more - methinks.

How are you supposed to judge the CR video? I understand you just can't pick their video and then judge it against something else. But is it all just random which 2 videos show up to judge?

I have to say Eric fingers not strumming his guitar while his lips move is kinda creepy. Eric needs to be playing his guitar! For me, the 2 best parts are when Adam reaches into his jacket and pulls out his accordian and the scene on the steps with Eric playing his guitar and Adam sitting next to him, looking like he's working on some lyrics. Although Adam hopping up and down (free, I'm free!) is pretty good, too.

It is true ..I watched 52 videos before Clear Channel appeared in the random vote-off!...not all at once ..if you are registered, the site remembers what it has shown you. but on your first non-registered vote, play and press judge ..and it is there straight away ...or maybe that was an accident of fate? Ahhhh the toy accordian...it did us proud.

I think you just lucked out. I watched the vid and pressed Judge, and 2 random vids came up.

Watcher that happened to me so I went back to the CoRo vid pressed play and then went to judge before it had finished, which I thought had registered my vote but who knows!?

That didn't work for me either. I guess it just hates me.
