I actually don't care for the videos very much, although I do think they're fun to see, I just don't think they're very good.

But I voted for Nightporter as it concentrates a lot on David's face...and mouth. 'Nuff said. lol

Good reason, ha ha!

I voted for Visions of China, though I like Quiet Life as well. And I almost voted for I Second That Emotion, but that's mainly because I'm enamoured by the suit David's wearing. :wink:

I voted for Visions Of China because I love that little segment of Mick Karn playing the Middle Eastern horn...

Oh Kera, thanks for the perfect excuse to watch them all again, before I decide... :wink:

Not that one needs an excuse....!

Incidentally Im surprised you didnt put the Top Of The Pops 'Ghosts' on your list? I quite like that one, as everyone looks so miserable/enigmatic/cool. :D

OK, I finally decided after watching them all again last night, that out of the given choices it has to be 'Visions...' as it is such a creative video compared to all the others..

From what's NOT on the list, I quite like the Blackwater video as well, and the very strange video to the Dali's Car (RIP) song, 'The Judgement is the Mirror', with Mick and Pete Murphy on some Mediterranean island somewhere flashing mirrors about. A classic.

Incidentally in reply to Sexandpolitics' comment about the Steve video to 'Stay Close' - yes he shakes that Jansen butt REAL good....*phew*...

i think the reason the others aren't on the list is cause they aren't straight japan videos.

I do love oil on canvas live as well....

Hmm yes...Oil on Canvas.....Mick's glide...*goes into daydream* ...

Anyway last night I watched the alternative Adolescent Sex video for the first time in ages - what a classic! I love the way they all end up sitting in that swimming pool. :D
