After being sprayed by the Thought Police with their Mosquito Foggers of Doom, I wanted the drones to bust through the gate, metaphorically and literally getting out of the box. And then start dancing!
Other than that, I loved it.
Do we think that one storm trooper was Brad? Sure looked like his eyes.

but I don't know if they will air it here in the arab worl because it hints to REVOLUTION ) :  : ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D  When we share a board that revolves around Adam it is easy to focus on the similarities between all our members regardless of where we all come from. In fact I love how this place proves that people are people, with the same interests and hearts. I marvel how I often don't realize where people are from because in so many ways we are all alike. But it is the unfortunately rare posts like the above that remind me of the diversity that coexists here. The above statement is so far from my reality. I want to acknowledge the different lives each and everyone of us has, as we type on our respective computers. Here I sit in America, proud that I am one who can see Adam's beauty when many around me seem blind. But I must give the credit to those who have to search farther for the like-minded, and actively seek out Adam--those who can't easily get his dvds or watch his videos, or openly approve of his sexuality or the politics of his videos. In our stanning of Adam, we are all fighting his battle of equality, love, fairness, voice in the world, rights of individuality, and for the simple beauty of music. But some of us are in a different place in this battle. I am truly humbled by those that live this struggle in a real way in their everyday lives. You are the best fans. And I am so thankful that technology allows me to "know" you. What a beautiful post, Kay! Big {{HUGS}} to our INTERNATIONAL ATOP COMMUNITY. I celebrate our DIVERSITY!!  |

However, my take is that there is no threat. This is not a prison. It is just life. It is us going about our everyday lives. Going to work, living the nine to five. There are people about us living life fabulously and we don't notice because we are too busy being the working drones that we are. The possibilities are right in front of us, but we just don't grab them. The video focuses on Adam as the individual. As in life, it is up to the individual. If we want to, we can make our life different. It is that simple and that complex. Just had to say, YES, Readon, this is exactly how I interpreted it too. You really summed it up perfectly here. The sci-fi themes, etc., are just a current/fun way of sending this message. Loved it! In talking about this video, Adam stresses the line "If you want it to." I think Readon is on the mark. But the video lets all of us use our imaginations - deep or not, which is also good. And I so appreciate this forum , collecting all the different opinions. |

This! Exactly this! I sometimes think inserting too much explanation is a way to feed the writer's ego. Look at me! See how clever I am! Far better to assume the reader/viewer is an equal and capable of figuring it out/drawing their own conclusions. Donnie Darko anyone?  Exactly, many people love those types of videos, movies or books like Donnie Darko! I do! Go and watch the videos that were nominated for Video of the Year and there will be unanswered questions behind all of them. Look at all of Gaga's videos...Bad Romance was universally praised and there were thousands of WTF moments and unanswered questions in that video. Even simple videos like Grenade by Bruno Mars or Adele's RITD leave the viewers with unanswered questions. The simplest things aren't spelled out because that would limit individual interpretations. Literal =/= Better |

I was bored with it and I think it's going to bore a lot of people. It needs more dancing or something. The problem may be that the song is kind of boring to me so I felt that the video needed more excitement to give the song more life. I really want Adam to do a video to one of his dance songs such as Cuckoo or Naked Love with him dancing along with the dancers. Now that would be fun.

Right on, Readon!!! Of course that's because I agree with your interpretation. If they ever make Never Close Our Eyes--the Movie, I want Juniemoon to write it and SusieFierce and lucynovember to edit it. Kanadie can work on sound, and I will sit happily in the audience with Adamrocks enjoying popcorn and drooling!
