Title: Music videos you don't understand the hype for
Post by: Dullahan on January 16, 2009, 03:29:14 PM
Okay, I love R.E.M. and their music. I think they've created some fine albums in the '90s. I just don't understand the hype for their music video for Losing My Religion:

Mind you, I love this song. And the video has nice colour and shading in it, but is it really that great? I'm not putting it down. I just don't find it to be very special. Is there something in this video that I don't see?

Share your opinions, Boyah. Which music videos don't you understand its popularity for?

All of them. I never understood all the appeal surrounding music videos. Pretty much all of them are cheesy to some degree and I don't find a single one of them to be half as entertaining as the music.
