Just watched it again, it has grown on me. Really like the start and the sweep around the band, but the kiss still feels like its too long!

Maybe they should have had all the audience kissing each other as well, or maybe even Sean and Bradders exchanging a bit of mouth action whilst Wire overlooks with his big stick. Ok that is just perverse.

On second thought, the video might be up there with the Valerie Phillips cut of autumnsong with the two girls dancing... I love Michael Sheen, but this video wasted his talent.

This is what Michael Sheen posted on his Twitter account earlier about the video:

Manics video was thrilling. The whole thing is one take. Should be pretty cool. The guys were great. A real honour. Really like the song too.

Bloody Hell, you really can't suit some people can you!?? What do some people want? A great song, Martin Sheen, Anna Freel, a VERY LONG snog, the boys in what looks like school uniform.....what more can you want!!!! Or am I the only one that is happy and will have various fantasies abt Mr Wire in his school uniform.

I LOVE IT.

Oh might just have to pop over to appreciation.

LAME!!!! my little sister thinks this vid is duller than a box of hair & I'm inclined to agree.
Is there something wrong with the actual BAND being the stars of their OWN FUCKING VIDEO?!?!?!?!
i'm so sick of being disappointed by the Manics, i love them and this sucks

How about a video that serves the song?

It's an awful treatment imho...this was the best idea someone could come up with? A chess match where the participants end up snogging? The entire video is in slow mo and JDB looks like a paedo!

Honestly, I love this band but this video for me is in the top 3 worst videos they've ever done, imho!

No way. This was like Ocean Spray but ten times more boring.

I like the Ocean Spray video because of what the song is about. It was fitting.
