Lol, am I only the one who really liked it? It was understated, bits of it were clever...i loved how the band looked...it's a short song. I felt it could have had something more, but a better video than I've seen for them for a long while. Looking forward to the album now.

Naw, you're not. I like it myself. Could've done with a bit more screentime from the band and bit less screentime spent snogging but I liked the general idea and execution. Like said, a massive step up from the videos they've been giving from the past few albums.

Aye, it was the little touches, Sean and James and Nick. I have to say I was expecting something to burst through the wall or something though. I loved that moment where he throws his hands in the hair cinematic style.

It's worth it just for...

-James with glasses (oh, what a handsome man!).

-The sad/nostalgic/serious look of Nicky... Oh, his eyes...

Am I the only one who thought James looked seedy? Other than that it was quite good.

I always enjoy a video where Sean gets to Act. Having said that I haven't watched it with the music yet. I like Anna Friel. These are my thoughts so far.

meh... not impressed. I still think the song is lame and the video concept too.
Wire mentioned 'sexual tension'... what tension, they just go for it in the end!

It didnt help that there was so much hype before the video came out, mostly from Nicky. As most seem to say, okay video but could have done much more with the actors
