Let it go, Luba, let go of the gratuitous use of the blue screen.
I don’t remember this video being quite so… BIZARRE. I watch it now and I have no idea what some of the people are actually doing. Was it choreographed, or did the director say: “Pretend you’re demented! A deliriously happy sort of demented!” I was 12 years old in 1984, I guess I didn’t question anything.
I showed this to Nadja on Sunday night while we were waiting for her friend’s flight to arrive at Pearson, and I said ‘I betcha it was made around Toronto…’ (considering Canadian video production values, that would be a sound stage, a Commodore 64, and a schoolyard during a fire drill!)
Anyone know?
