It's cos Jocke looks old, and the black and white effect doesn't work. But that's ok, their videos are always dissapointing, that's why I don't anticipate them.
He IS OLD. And he looks damn good. I love the scruffy beard. I love Sami like x100. Like Sami rules. Sami is awesome. Sami. Sami. Sami. Sami. Sami. Sami for president.
Okay seriously, I like the song. I like the video a lot. Black and white videos are hot.

Soz, I should have said...I think it's a bit boring to be honest. Performance videos usually are...this one is a bit different in that it's in a studio, but there's not much energy going on in the performance and the black and white grainy processing and blurry bits aren't helping it. The video doesn't have anything interesting enough in it that I'd want to see it again --it's not an original concept, it doesn't tell a story, it does nothing to help interpret the song. It is minimalist, but it's not beautiful enough in its simplicity to be able to pull it off. Near the end it also recycles some frames at the beginning of the video (e.g. the equalizer, the keyboard playing, the random flashing dot!?!?). I just find it a very uninspiring.
I have to say that I like the new video. I love that it's so simple, that it's black and white, that they're all so consentrated in playing/singing.
Sakermanser didn't think this video helps to interpret the song. Well, it may be so, but at least the video doesn't have its own story (as they often have) to complicate the interpretation of the song![]()
