I waited for the debut on VH-1 for this video, they announced in advance so I sat through all sorts of VH-1 dreck until it came on. And I was like..."huh?"
Don't get me wrong, I do like the video and it was well done. It just took me a little by suprise. I had a 'start', as they say. I had not seen Stevie's face so wide in a long...well, ever. And so many close-ups, again with the wide face! One might think a sympathetic director could have corrected this somewhat by using a longer shot, gauze over the lens or something. Remember the Paula Abdul 'Promise of a New Day' vid where the director stretched the image vertically to give her a less boxy looking face when SHE put on some pounds?
Other than that, I love the gorgeous interior shots, the lamps, the bed with the long nets of white, the party scene...
