YOu tube doesn't open for me. Nothing f*** works. Can anyone suggest a browswer that f*** opens websites, especially newspaper websites, before pretending to open, and only revealing part of the website.
btw, thanks for the link.
From what I've heard the video isn't minimal enough. They should film a white room where nothing happens. That way it'll really annoy those who want to see a recreation of the Love Parade.
Since the song seems to be about style over substance, maybe that's why the video appears to be the way it is from your decriptions.

me like very much !
The video is fab ! The lighting's amazing and even though the concept of flashing lights behind the band has been done so many times recently (coldplay, u2..), the b/w of it all standsout pretty well.
Neil looks really smooth in his suit, but yes he neednt have streched the 'dumb charades' bit soo much..'Light' and 'shade' was ok, but doing the actions for 'time' and 'draw a line'
LOL !
The dancing bits were totally cool, though they reminded me of Kylie's Fever dancers robo-moves

Superb video. Does fit totally with the song.
Neons, light and shade (neil in the shadow), dancers who reflect minimal perfectly.
And black is beautiful, just as the album...
Only the flower part doesn't fit in my opinion.
One of their best, looks a bit like Left To My Own Devices..

Left to my own devices was too dark and arty for its own good and coming after some of PSB's best ever like Heart and Domino Dancing..it was a bit of a let down
the very obvious video would have been the man (the song's protagonist) drinking, tea, on the phone, watching tv etc..but that wud have been predictable
