PJ Harvey On A Bouncy Castle



Here is a nice video, directed by uber-dark and pervy BritArtists The Chapman Brothers, for PJ Harvey's new song "Black Hearted Love". 

Two things I have learnt from watching posting this video

1. In America it seems they call a bouncy castle an "inflatable moonwalk" - this can't be right can it? What's a see-saw called stateside - "a planky bobber?" 

2. What other musicians would you like to see on a bouncy castle (or similar), and which artist could direct?

I'd like to see the Jesus and Mary Chain bouncing on Tracy Emin's bed.

I'd also like to see The Jonas Brothers pickled alive in formaldehyde by Damien Hirst

We call them Bouncy Castles!! And we call them see-saws, too, but you don't see them around the playgrounds anymore. Too many injuries?

How about Scarlett Johanson (I don't know how to spell her name) I think she has a new album out. And it could be shot by Woody Allen. So, a very tight close-up of bouncing cleavage!!

I'd like to see Coldplay, Keane, Snow Patrol and Razorlight playing part of the ducks in a shooting gallery.

With serious guns.

Since this is a complete fantasy, I would be in a position to choose Joseph Beuys to direct a video featuring Zooey Deschannel, where the camera is placed in a small ditch directly beneath the line of descent of a bunjee rope and which captures Ms. Deschannel catapulting towards and away from the camera, as she sings something very sensual like Bacharach's 'The Look of Love'...

Now THAT's what I call entertainment!
