I wonder if it's incredibly frustrating and a little sad for Adam that his fans pick him apart as much as his critics do? I love the video but I was a teenager when MTV came around and music videos weren't any more complicated than a girl rolling around on the hood of a car. Maybe that's why I don't look to a 4 min video to be life changing and/or a cinematic masterpiece. It's just a fun way to listen to music I love with added eye candy. LOL whenever I think of MTV and the first video I think of this one.. Blondie's Rapture!!! Can't get worse than this.  I love this song! The shots of the black dude strutting his stuff over the bridge are amazing ;D |

OMG LOVE LOVE LOVEEEEEEEEEEE THE VIDEO!!!!!!! I'm a huge fan of dystopian concepts and I really liked the way they set this up. A bit ironic about the unclosing electronic "eyes" watching the inhabitants considering the lyric, lol. I really love the power Adam has in his hands (literally) by taking the pills that keep them (barely) alive and turning it into liberating color. And then at the fence when they were being sprayed, there was like a forcefield around him, right? That kept the harmful fumes from them, and instead turned into brilliant color instead and painting them in rainbow hues in a dance of freedom and rebellion. And then of course they had to stop dancing quickly because they had to go back and rescue the others, of course Love love love it!!!!! Going to watch some more! I LOVE THE VIDEO AND I LOVE YOU!!! |

Well video didn't kill the radio star, but auto tune killed the rock star. |

Agree. I wasn't looking for Avatar-caliber special effects either, but think the video effectively delivers the message "take off the blinders and be open to life." Did think that the dancing scene used some oddly narrow camera cuts, though that isn't a dealbreaker for me. And I wonder if Terrance was in charge of the choreography?
Has Adam said anything about the significance of the pendant he wears in the video? It's big and noticeable, has kind of a complex design, and none of the other drones are wearing anything like it. So it almost seems like it might have a role in the story. (Or maybe a pendant's just a pendant.) |

Hmm, personally I don't really care about auto tune as long as the music's good  So um I just watched the NCOE video... what the hell?! ??? |
