God, I feel ill.
I had such a rough night last night (second one running) that I had to have today off, whether I was still ill or not.
Fortunately I am, so it's not a day wasted.
Iko have revealed the video to Prom Song. I can't say I'm wowed. I kind of get where it's coming from - holiday footage, underwater shots because of the needing air lyric, but the woman who made the video did it really badly.
There's not enough interaction with the camera. It tells no story. It's just watching a girl in a cool bikini jump off the side of a swimming pool in what looks like Spain. If she'd waved at the camera, more, done stuff other than jump in a pool, if we'd maybe actually seen a bit of the person holding the camera - a hand reaching out or something - maybe even a side-ways camera shot where he's put down the camera and it's still running and you can see then being w00bie in the background... maybe that would have made the video make more sense. It's a love song and there is no love.
But, the way it is, it's just a girl in a cool bikini jumping in a pool a lot.
Not feeling the love.
And I feel really bad about that.
