I really like the video.

The more I listen to this song, the more I feel really sorry for Nicky.

First time I've listened to the song and it's not what I expected. However I quite like it especially the music. The video is not too bad but not very original either. Must listen to the song alone without the video now.

Absolutely love the song. Loved all the videos from rewind the film but not keen on this one, found it a bit ridiculous.

The video is one of their better looking ones but not the kind of thing to get millions of YouTube views, which is what it's all about these days.

Is that a Futurology shoebox deluxe set she finds at the end?

Probably the highest definition MSP video ever made!

And the final sentence of my original statement still stands. (leaves the party so others can have fun.)

Edit Technically speaking the word "Futurologie" exists, but no one would use it. It's Zukunftsforschung, ffs!
No one would use it English also, not that I know. Haha I've just noticed the Zukunft bag in the video...after 5th time or so
Anyway, my problem with their videos is that they always seem somehow empty and "unfinished"...Don't know how to explain it really. LIke something's missing.

Edit: Love the Kima sig!

I liked the song a lot, and I thought the live performance parts of the video were really nicely lit and shot. I thought the rest of it was a bit cheesy and kind of A-level politics video-esque.

I'm hoping the video blends into Europa... And the girl in the video gets on stage and joins them in the Nina Hoss role

Some people have mentioned it about the vid but the bits with the band look amazing (lighting/Ultra HD). I love the video but couldn't care less for the girl running around. Should have just been a performance video in my opinion.

Heard the song once on radio - sounded like a cross between 1985 and Tokyo Skyline, need to hear it again.
