        I saw the premiere on MTV, it was late after Liquid Television if I remember right. I remember seeing a disclaimer, never saw one before or since on MTV. There it was. It’s a ride for sure.

        Not sure why YT doesn’t have it under their account, but Apple Music shows that video under their page. So I guess it is an official burden that yt just doesn’t have as official. Weird.

    There’s something about the video for Len’s “Steal My Sunshine” that’s just very comforting to me. I don’t think it’s just nostalgia, because this is how I felt when I first saw it back in the 90’s, too.

      interesting trivia:

      The song’s music video—which uses the shorter “album edit” of the song, as featured on the single—was jointly directed by Marc Costanzo and Bradley Walsh under the respective stage names “The Burger Pimp” and “B-Rad”.[30] When Len had signed to Work Records, one of its demands was to be able to direct its own videos.[7] The group used a $100,000 budget to make the video. They flew to Daytona Beach, Florida[5] with two dozen friends while the area was crowded with people on their spring vacations. They spent much of the budget on alcohol, buying so much that they broke their hotel’s elevator trying to lift it.[5] They shot the video in the afternoon so that they could recover from hangovers in the morning and drink in the evening. The scenes were shot without a script or storyboard. In the video, Len and friends are shown relaxing together and riding on scooters, go-karts, and jet skis.

      Motorrad, whose scooters were included in the music video, later held a promotion giving away scooters of the same model.[7] At the 1999 MuchMusic Video Awards, “Steal My Sunshine” won awards for Best Video, Best Pop Video, and Favourite Canadian Video.[32]

    Michel Gondry made some amazing videos, and one of my absolute favorites was Cibo Matto’s Sugar Water. Blew my mind the first time I saw it. https://youtu.be/EN9auBn6Jys

      The music video i came to post in here is Lucas With The Lid Off, and it’s also a Michel Gondry video. Absolutely brilliant video.

      Sugar Water is such a great song though. Cibo Matto was so good.

            It had to be shot in one take. The overlays are all in real time and keyed out using a Z-channel, which was brand new technology at the time. (At least used this way).

      Musically Pearl Jam didn’t quite scratch my itch even though I respected them as a band. Then this song and video dropped and has always been a favorite. The Spawn craze has died down a bit but this came out at the time McFarlane was huge and it was cool to see his style animated for the first time.

      A powerful story telling music video.

      While watching, I couldn’t help think that the animation style seems familiar. I felt it to be very close to the animation style of Batman: The Animated Series. And I was right.
