So great. Don't suppose you have the B Side to either this or Plastic Ashtray? I remember a track called Got The Sun that was amazing... I need to track that sucker down.

Urusei were and still are one of the greatest bands ever. One of my all time favourites. I used to correspond with Elaine quite regularly, in the days before emails.
This video was directed and produced by myself, Simon Hitchman, and my film-making partner, Roberto Roarke, back in 1996. The concept originated with ourselves not the editor who was hired after the promo had already been shot. It was indeed inspired by Warhol's Factory, which we recreated in a draughty old film studio in King's Cross. Other scenes were shot in the backstreets near the station.
Well Simon, what you neglect to mention is that I was also the editor on the previous Yatsura promo and that's where I made the suggestion. I take no credit at all for the execution of the idea (which I though was great btw).
It was made by 2 guys who called themselves Blue Harvest films (after star wars) and I suggested they looked at old Andy Warhol films for inspiration, hence the VU feel.
i have no actual words for how much i love this song.
if it were me or the last copy of this song in the world on the edge of a cliff and one of us had to go over into oblivion... well, naturally i'd throw the song off the cliff, i'm not a fucking idiot. however i'd try to throw it onto a small ledge not too far down so i could return and rescue it later on.
hey Man! give me some real urusei yatsura song!!!!!
Im uruseis fan not urs!
