This is a RIDICULOUS video, and she still refuses to appear in a video without a piano, but on first listen, I'm taken by it.

Not sure about the computery stuff involved in posting?

It's an interesting-sounding song. I'm not sure it really goes anywhere but it's growing on me. As a power-ballad fan, though, i think i need a bigger chorus.
The eighties influence is massive, of course. Rather than being a reimagined version of the cooler elements, it actually sounds like it was recorded twenty-or-so years ago.
Thanks for that link
Musically it reminded me of this...

And the video reminded me off this...

Hee hee.
Actually, I kind of liked the song and the video. Reminds me of the early days of MTV.
ANd thanks for the link.
Although 95% off topic, the subject of power ballads and eighties videos reminded me of this:

Everyone's probably seen it already but the "literal version" of Total Eclipse Of The Heart is amusing.
Hehe, I definitely see the connection with the abandoned warehouse type location, and the literal version of TEOTH is a classic.
@ ejd - thanks for the links - found some great stuff there.
... including Iron & Wine who I'd never heard of before and now (having quickly downloaded three of their albums) officially love!
Thanks again, ejd.
