[Introspective] Re: PSB poll \"Which video adds the mosttothesong?\"

[Zdenek Stanka]

Well, I don't agree. I think you both miss the point of the poll question.
It goes (went): "which of their videos "adds the most" to the song. (Or to
put it another way, which song benefits the most from its video?)"...

And since I never really liked Heart on radio/CD but always loved it as the
video then I had to vote for Heart after reading the question carefully...

Yeah, I think you're right about the "asset" of Single video but as I liked
the song even before seeing the video I can't "label" it as "the video that
adds the most to the song".

Hope you understand what I want to say... :)


But still, I'd really appreciate some explanation of those 16.9% BB voters.



Read you,
Zdenek

  I think the obvious answer is Single-(Bilingual). The Heart video tells a
completely different story from the lyrics, which I think is a shame -
simple though they are, I have always thought that Heart had touching
lyrics.

    I couldn't agree more. In fact, I voted for Heart.

      I think it's funny that, so far, the largest plurality of people are
voting
    for "Being boring" as the PSB single that most benefits from its video.

      To me, "Being boring" is practically the PSB's best song, and of a
caliber
    that no video could in any way enhance. In other words, of all the PSB
songs,
    "Being boring" is the least in need of any help from a video, and thus
the
    least enhanced (or not enhanced at all) by its video.

      If anything, "Being boring" seems to be a case where the song actually
    benefits the video, rather than the video benefiting the song. My
hypothesis,
    then,  would be that those voting for "Being boring" in this poll are
somehow
    confusing their love for this excellent song and the fact that it has a
    fittingly excellent video with the idea that the video in some way
enhances the
    song.
