chunkey I am really curious to see what he does with this vid. I'm kinda wanting him to stay away from black and white and broodily gazing at snow melting in the gutter or whatever if only because it's a little too much like WWFM and Adele's Someone Like You video. I wonder about clips from a life together, kind of like that Oz gay marriage video, but only seeing the partner at the end, or some kind of an entirely unexpected narrative (though the song is pretty serious and hard to cast as about anything other than a love story). Or here's my completely off the wall idea. It actually takes place around a movie theater or some dark room where Adam is watching a combination of home videos and clips of classic movie love stories/bromances/partnerships through time. We could have Say Anything, Amelie's date, Hepburn and Tracey, Xavier and Magneto, Leo's Romeo with Claire Danes' Juliet, Mickey and Mallory (or Bonnie and Clyde), Jack and Ennis, I dunno lol. I know in vids like Raise Your Glass and Firework the stories implicit in the song are often told in a series of vignettes with different groups actors playing out little slices of life, both gay and straight. Instead I'd like to see a video using cultural touchstones for romance, partnerships, and love/hate relationships from the movies because it would be more evocative. But getting usage rights could be really expensive and troublesome so this is really just a day dream, lol. I flashed on something like this while reading Chunkey's post too, RabbitRabbit. I think the idea of vignettes of all types of relationships could be amazing too. Or like what Pink did with "Fucking Perfect" where she told the story, but was not the lead in the video. Vignettes are cool. But I guess I wanna see something like RiRi's Only Girl in the World. Not exactly copycat of course...but something evoking that feeling. Something simple yet visually stunning, something that gives Adam's performing a chance to shine. If you haven't seen the riri vid I mean check it out and you will get a better sense of what I envision Here is the vid. www.youtube.com/watch?v=pa14VNsdSYM&ob=av3eYou can be sexy without any love interests...or anyone else actually lol |

I love the tree full of dress/lanterns and I can picture Adam doing a morning in Black Rock City kind of version of this and looking incredible. Hmm... but it seems maybe a little too celebratory and upbeat for BTIKM? But if it was more blues and purples and greens? I agree that something like this would keep the focus more on Adam and his voice and sexy moves. I want to see all the possible Adam videos ;D |

I am envisioning the stylistic elements of this vid, but obsly done in a way consistent with the mood of the song. I guess I chose this example as something I wanna see: VISUAL EYE CANDY. |

Lol, sounds good to me, I can kinda picture it, but if only I could just plug into your head it would be even better.  OT but not really, basically all Rihanna's vids, especially her most recent ones are really good IMO and give her songs more weight. I'd love to see Adam's vids done as well. |
