Marillion – Kayleigh Music Video Breakdown.

Hi there, it’s been a while since I gone did one of these there video things. April 2020, in fact. It is however, worth noting, that I had even started that one way before it was “published”. I’m putting published in quotes, because, to say that these posts are published seems to lend them some…

Madonna – Like A Prayer Music Video Breakdown.

DISCLAIMER: I started this post, FUCKING FOREVER AGO (April 26th, 2019) and I’m never going to finish it so it’s time to give up. Anything referring to “last month” or anything like that is now going to be waaaaay off. So here is as far as I got… Last month, music fans, marked the 30th…

Green Day – Boulevard Of Broken Dreams Music Video Breakdown.

Now, I’m not going to do a full breakdown of this. I just wanted an excuse to type a post as I got a new keyboard and needed something to use to put it through it’s paces. (Side note, this keyboard is amazing). Anyway, there won’t be a minute by minute breakdown in this post,…

Billy Joel – The Longest Time Music Video Breakdown.

I started writing this post on November 17th last year. I have made you all wait for The Longest Time. FUCK YOU ALL IT WAS WORTH IT! The danger with this post is that we get way off target and start talking about how good An Innocent Man is. (It’s an amazing album). What we’re…

Why Did We Hate Creed?

First of all, TL:DR – They were shit. So, Creed. I’m aware I’ve gone with a picture from the new film, but 1) I’d rather look at that, 2) It’s not easy to find other Creed pictures right now. (Yes I know it’s easy, it’s a fucking joke. Don’t @ me.) Why did we hate…

Bonnie Tyler – Total Eclipse Of The Heart Music Video Breakdown.

For those of you that know this video, you’ll be expecting the total batshit mental..ness that’s about to unfold. Before we get there, however, let’s enjoy a few stats about the song and video! The song was released in 1983, from the 5th album of Welsh songstress Bonnie Tyler! The album version of the song…

Guns N’ Roses – November Rain Music Video Breakdown.

I’ll tell you what, this is going to give me a fucking breakdown! Right, before we get started, let’s just get a few things out the way. I know this video pretty well. It was one of a handful I used in my commonucations… Is that not how you spell comonocations? Oh man. Comunionalcations? I…

Duran Duran – Rio Music Video Breakdown.

I can’t prove it, but I’m fairly sure this video started with the following conversation in an office, probably in London, 1982. Director: Right, it’s the 80s. Everyone is being super literal. We need to symbolise stuff. Simon The Strawberry Bon Bon: Symbolise what? Director: It doesn’t matter. Just symbolise stuff. Simon: Shouldn’t it be…

Elton John – Nikita Video Breakdown.

[00:00] The video opens with some guards goose stepping along. We’re at the East German border, in the midst of the Cold War. [00:05] Turns out that Elton John has parked in the middle of a public walkway, what a dick. Sitting in a car that couldn’t look more “Elton John”, he’s also managed to…

Lionel Richie – Hello Video Breakdown.

An obvious choice for me this, I don’t know why I didn’t put pen to paper sooner on this, so to speak. Possibly one of my fave ever music videos. Let’s take a look first this time and then I’ll break it down. Wooo the song is starting! Oh, no, wait. Lionel wants to do…

Eric Carmen – Hungry Eyes Video Breakdown.

Eric Carmen – Hungry Eyes. I’ve lifted this post from a previous post. I just thought this needed a post of it’s own. We’re vastly in danger of a video deconstruction here. It’s no secret that I love this song. I’ve talked about it before. One thing we haven’t done though, is discuss the MENTAL…
