What a great, great idea. You're so smart. You should come up with the concepts and locations for all of olp's videos.

Well, I just figured that Toronto's like a central location. It's not that far from New York, it's not that far from Detroit, it's not that far from London, Ottawa, etc. It's a good place fan wise.

Yeah, and something about 3 of the 4 guys in the band being from Toronto would have something to do with it too.

Boston?

I'd guess so.

That's where Letters to Cleo is from anyways.

Now that is cheesy in a very bad way.

I think Mike is from Maine. He told Steph and I about how he used to go surfing in Maine and how beautiful the place is.

Again that comes down to a matter of opinion .. I liked the Life video and the message it had

You can't take a song like Innocent and do a hardcore rock video, it just wouldn't suit the song ..

SOT is my favorite video after Thief. I love just simplistic videos. I love just watching them play........simple......great. I really don't like all the themed "girl wandering around empty town" stuff............I just like simple videos. In Repair was cool too, of course. OMA isn't bad.........but only cause its funny to see Raine fly:)
Life would have been cool without those little stories thrown in.........although it is awfully uplifting:)

Fair enough. I'm not saying that they should do a hardcore rock video (which are all crap anyway). In my opinion a video should be something more than the band performing the song. Why don't they try something different (like they did for In Repair). But I suppose that wouldn't appeal to the TRL crowd, which according to all this shit I keep getting from the OMA is all that matters. Call me crazy...

I hated the In Repair video but that's just me .. the concept they're talking about sounds interesting so all we can do is wait and see ..

Damn, I need this video to come out now!

lol

Where did everyone get the idea that it could be a first-person video?

superboots · Post by **superboots** » 8/17/2002, 4:40 pm

because olp.cc said that it would be like Foo Fighters- My Hero, which is a first person video

I watched that video last night and dreamed that I was staying at a hotel or something, and there was a fire, lol.

The video's pretty sweet, so if Innocent is going to be shot like that, awesome.
