I wonder how some people get their hands on something like this...

Why would they care? The
whole point of a music video is to serve as a commercial.

Errm, that would be the reason for my 2nd sentence. I knew Americans had a short attention span, but wow!

Yes, I'm just emphasizing that you answered your own question. The only reason for PSB/Parlophone to care that an
advertisement leaked would be if they'd had lobotomies.

That's ok mate no problem. It was just a comment really to eliict discussion and has therefore served its purpose. A question would have had a ? at the end of it.

I supposed the new PSB video had a new version of Numb (at least an edit version) and I see no difference between the album version and this one. How strange!

Now you can see the video on the
OS (go to the Product section). The info about the tracklistings has also been updated on
recordstore (no covers yet, though).

The PSB site states that the video is edited to the album version.
The radio edit is different to what appears on the video.
Retro.

At the last seconds of video, before of Neil' appearance? If it so, i think you're confused. Because it's russian king Peter I the Great (moment from old soviet film). If you're interested:
via Wiki.

Caught the video on B4 (Ch 357 on Sky) on Sunday night about 11.30pm. It is very atmospheric, but will it really help sell any singles?
I one of the people who has liked Numb from the start, and always expected it to be a single, but am not sure if this choice of video is good or not.
As an aside (sorry its a bit off topic), I think you could classify most PSB videos into commercial (Go West, It's a sin), and art (Home and Dry, Numb). What do you think?

Are you asking what we'd put Numb under, Pop or Art?
If that's the case, then the Numb video definitely goes under Art

IMO anyway...
It's great, love the song, the video and the artwork!!!

Neil and Chris' interpretation of what was 'Pop' and 'Art' were wrong anyway. They should have let me decide. Was the tracklising on PopArt decided by the video's to the songs?
