TALKING LOUD AND CLEAR | ||
NOTESDirected by Simon Milne. The initial storyline for the video involved two lovers wandering through the countryside, interspersed with footage of OMD driving in the country, ending with the couple arriving to see OMD play live. But this idea seemed a little dull, so the theme of Paul and Andy as scarecrows was conceived. "The one that was supposed to look like Gone With The Wind and ended up looking like the Blue Peter version of Wizard of Oz!" recalls Andy McCluskey, "Paul told me not to get dressed up as a scarecrow and I thought it sounded like a good idea - it's all my fault! In fact if it didn't have the scarecrow stuff it would be quite charming." |
TRIVIAThe two girls in the video were sisters and the girl with dark hair definitely made an impression on Andy: "The girl at the end, who you don't see much of, was absolutely gorgeous and I fancied her pants off!". |
