When they played for Clinton, Lindsey talked about being able to hide behind his guitar. When you have a guitar or piano or drums, it's easy to look useful, even if you are not. I think it might help Stevie to look into an oboe, for video purposes. She could pretend to play it earnestly and that would mitigate the appearance of pointlessness a great deal.

Kinda how she did in the Sorcerer video - strumming a guitar.

That's a fine video. I only wish FM could have one that cool for an SYW song.

Thank you. What the heck was up with those SYW vids?? Talk about a budget cut... I know they could have come up with something better than filming the rehearsal. Even clips of DR would have been more interesting...you know, "Peacekeeper take your time" and show Stevie storming out of the room and LB following her. It's all in the editing...

John hates making videos, and it's not like their new videos get played on MTV/VH-1.

VH1 played videos far more often in 2003 than they do now- the band would have been well served by a concept video for either Peacekeeper/Say You Will/Thrown Down.

John hating making videos has nothing to do with it, or the logic behind doing it or not. Sorry.

A video for THROWN DOWN would have helped rescue the song. It came out just as most of the radio stations that would maybe play it were all going to FREEKIN CHRISTMAS music. It would have helped save the song from disappearing.

Thrown Down was released as a single?

My concept video for the next album(?) is to have hot actors playing them in the 70s. . . specifically, Steven Strait as Lindsey... reliving the famed break up.
