It also occurs that this is one of their better videos. Production wise, quality wise, appropriateness to music, etcetera, this has got to be the best I've seen yet. Phantoms is pretty great as well.
@LillieBoo225 I think I will do it again tonight...I have Demons Can't Dance on DVD. I think whoever gave you three thumbs down ought to try it...You learn so much about yourself!!
This is the song that, aptly enough, got me into the residents. It's friggin sweet!
PS: Don't take me too seriously on this one... but the urban landscape+building+heater combo kind of reminds me of Eraserhead. Does anyone else feel the same way?
my favorite vid from the commercial album dvd. it is a shame that it isnt longer, but if yah do your research on this cd, all the tracks are about one minute long. a failed attempt by ralph records to get more radio play. hence the title.....the commercial album. still, the dvd is better than the cd, because the band had all sorts of artists make the vids for them, only a handful are actually made by the residents. my fav dvd is demons dance alone. happy easter.
They still got it played on the radio, they paid for advertizement spots, the requirment for advertizements were they has to be one minute long. They bought 40 spots, one for each song. And of course another word for advertizements are commercials, there for, there album The Commercial Album is a rather appropriate name.
"Easter woman came today and took away my wife. Took her to an open doorway to the afterlife." It's so friggin' awesome! I think it's a shame this song isn't longer, it would have been badass.
What actually is an Easter woman? Aside from being somebody who took his wife to the after life, obviously. Or isn't it actually a thing?

It's from The Commercial Album, on which every song was one minute as part of a concept about pop music and radio jingles.

Just paste the code of the vid behind it and hit "Loop" on the page you get. You can also set it to loop certain bits. Nifty, no?
