What is the point of the video? What is the aim? What kind of music are you looking at? Is it going to be a one-off on its own or a project or is it complementing something else??

Some time ago there was also somebody with Coolblues or something like that (I think it was “Lawyer”) who also made videoclips to Roxette-songs.

Okay I sent my video concept. I believe (my interpetation, I think it is on this board somewhere) is the protagonist from COY is a drug addict (or at least high) and he is thinking of all these things. I think the video should have a high school kid who is stoned and seeing all these weird things (would have June Afternoon video elements, bright colors, etc, ect) such as “my dog’s an alligator”, neighbor who “Looks so sweet and tender, it’s hard to tell his gender”. Anyway, they wanted an idea, so I have a vague idea.. Peace, Scotty J
roxcyn said on August 28, 2005 06:58:
Actually you guys are asking about this. I think it is pretty cool since they’re not releasing anything right now. New Radicals (broke up 7 years ago)...well there is this fan site, and the guy who has it is a video major (or something like that) and he made a video of their “Jehovah Made This Whole Joint For you” which is awsome that someone could be so dedicated, so I think it is cool
If you want more information about that video, go to my website: www.angelfire.com/amiga2/roxetteremakes and go to the Favorite websites link, and then go to the New Radicals links, and it is the first website, then you can download their video if you are interested.

Hey i did that too... we actually have very similar ideas eventhough mine was more of a play on genders - seeing that Marie’s image always challenged the notion of tradition feminity.
However i’m still to hear from thorp films; had to do something for them by sept 1st but never got a proper brief... Maybe Ally was right afterall!
alexandre100 said on August 28, 2005 15:25:
Well, for me, “Crush On You” video could be more on this way: A guy that doesn’t follow the rules, that don’t have the same way of living, the same behaviour as the average people: he is a “zombie in the moonlight”, he “sleeps when it’s daylight”... And he has a messy life, with “dead flies in his scotch with ice”, his “talents always vaporize”, his “brain is getting cock-eyed”... But, despite of everything, there’s a common girl that’s “got a crush on him”, that likes his style...
roxcyn said on September 2, 2005 02:25:
I don’t think it’s fake because they emailed me about my idea. So maybe they will do it? :D
purplemedusa said on September 2, 2005 07:29:
Roxcyn... don’t get too excited; they’re all talk & no action! They’ve mailed me as well however i honestly doubt that this company even exsist!!
Kathrin said on September 2, 2005 20:21:
I think Ally 77 is right!
But I think that the Beatles Video to the song yellow submarine should be renewed!
roxcyn said on September 8, 2005 05:43:
walk by faith and not by sight. I believe it will happen
Peace!

What about Hotblooded or Watercolours In The Rain or a remake or Stars as the current video is so bad that is makes me cringe.
