el problema con usar stop-motion en este vídeo es que la música es muy dinámica, es fluida, y se ve muy feo esos cortes que el stop-motion le dan... a mi parecer, esta canción da la oportunidad de hacer un vídeo con más movimiento, más fluidez, no me gusta como utilizaron el stop-motion aquí... quizás si le hubiesen dado una estética de show de variedades, como tipo "rueda de la fortuna" o un programa de ventas por televisión... con muchos elementos y cambios de imagen rápidos... :D
the video paired with the track here is not the official video for this awesome song, yes? would love to know what the the original video was for, as it's fantastic as well (please! :) )
It's an "in the face" critique of our consumer world... we buy things we don't need but we never learn. We buy more and more, we are too lazy and unmotivated to change our attitude we are "comfortable fools".
What does this attitude bring? Global warming, third world/poor countries, even war.
The video shows us an inventor of something "new" and "popular" and everybody buys it until something else comes. However the same thing is modified and thus "reinvented". People buy the same useless thing.
Well yea I get the meaning of the song it means life has its ups and downs (At least in my opinin) But seriously that guy got rich by selling coloured cardboard :D
ikothe wolf...were u actually at glastonbury in 2004... zero 7 were awesome live...the highlight of the festival... type in zero 7 glastonbury and watch some.
Someone who knows how to do it please post here the tracks SWING, SOLASTALGIA and MR MCGEE from their my space website and new album tracks as they become available please.
Zero 7...the world's most underrated band! Or perhaps I should say the world's most UNKNOWN truly great band! B/c those who have heard them, LOVE THEM!!!
sharkskid really hit me with his comment!the vid sure brings back a lot of memories! Amazing video too according to warningSDE! But the trumpet at each interval really set me thinking!Very powerful song and video.Makes u wonder what happened to corporate America.
Basically, the first man makes an invention. It starts out small, then rises and rises. He is living in the fame. Then a new product comes out that is more popular. He goes out of business and goes into what seems to be a depression
I love this track. It's my favourite of all of them I think. It takes me to where the breeze is warm, where the waves crash onto my favourite golden sandy beach and where the sky is more blue than anywhere in the world.
I absolutely LOVE this song! I think it's one of Zero 7 best, and one of Sia's best vocal performances. That little "gasp" she does at the end of a few lines gives me chills... There is no one like Sia. It's been on repeat in my car for several days on end *(even though, I love ALL Zero 7 + Sia tracks:)! I go back & forth between this and "You're My Flame". ;@b
I bumped into this song on muchmusic 2 years ago now I guess and instantly made me a huge fan...zero 7 changed my musical preferences completely...love you fellas...when's the next album dropping?
Oh, don't get me wrong, I love most every one of their songs. It's the visual content that I don't like. The songs themselves are among the best on my computer.
i love this clip

In fact I like nearly all Zero 7 songs, they always seem very catchy and easy to listen to for some reason.
Like the guy below says they're very underrated.
