Skies The Limit Video...
 

I can't seem to find the Skies The Limit video online. I remember it was a live concert clip video with add-ins. Anyone know where this could be? Also, the liner notes photo from the Greatest Hits album with the giant tusk among other items is no where to be found online. Anyone remember or have it to post? THX

Here is one to try from the vh1 page-

^ Thanks jenniferuk, but that video doesn't play in the UK (although the advert before it has no qualms about playing ;) ). I find that rather cheeky, given the origins of the singer.

A quick google search in the "videos" section reveals that the video is hiding around the internet in a good few places, sean. :) This one worked for me, but it all depends on your location, I suppose:

The VH1 version is of such poor quality. The one from dictrictmtv played for me and looks good.

I've always liked this song and I love the behind the scenes aspect of the Behind the Mask tour. It shows what a good time they were having and also the large crowds the Mac will still attracting in 1990.

Props also to those Christine shots on the rocks! :cool:

I've always wondered about the grammar of the song title.. "skies the limit" is plural... "sky's" is the contraction for "sky is". is it a UK thing ? a quirk of Christine? or am I missing the meaning of the title?

No, people in the UK are just as appalled by it as we are. :laugh: It just appears to be sloppiness.

Christine looks so beautiful here, as in their 80s videos.

At (dictrictmtv ) 00:20, are those her legs?

Only realizing now that the co-writer of this song, Eddy Quintela, is a native of Portugal, here's a wild guess on how this spelling of the song title might have come to be printed on the album cover: how about Eddy came up with the chorus and, not being a native speaker, he wrote it in this way, and Christine liked it because it's kind of "bjork-ish" in a way and left it in?

Of course, I completely made up that story and it's completely fictional, but maybe she might do an email interview with a fan site one day (like many band members and associates have done in the past) and the origin of that title can be clarified as part of that interview?

If I were cynical, I'd suspect it had something to do with United Airlines being a major tour sponsor; United Airline's slogan being "Fly the Friendly Skies".

We all did send questions to her old website. But I bet that probably wasn't included among them.

Ohhh I've always hated that title because of the shocking grammar! :laugh:
