You could use edits from Phenomena for a New Romantic video.
Re: Frankie Goes to Hollywood. The Demons soundtracks throw up similar surprises. It always weirds me out when I hear The Smiths pop up in Demons 2. I often wonder whether Morrisey knews about it. |
There is something about music videos and cinema where they borrow heavily from each other -- I watched
Razorback last week and, before it was mentioned by Alan Jones in the featurette, noticed how closely the visuals resembled Russell Mulcahy's early music videos such as Video Killed the Radio Star, with plenty of fog and backlighting.
