Patrick Daughters' Shins clip gives me real actual goosebumps on repeat viewings.kevathens, 5. January 2007, 18:28
Cornelius "Beep It" dir. Koichiro Tsujikawa - hideously underrated - or non-rated, take yer pick - on Antville.inatree, 6. January 2007, 08:07
Ok, I've got to jump in finally. First off, I know Antvilleans may think otherwise, but Patrick Daughters is NOT the music video god everyone thinks. Don't get me wrong, I think he is talented and I appreciate what he is trying to do most of the time, but I do not feel like he delivers. That is the biggest problem I have with his videos. Something is almost always missing, be it good performance, good production design, enough coverage, story not developed when applicable, ...
I can keep quiet about this no longer. I haven't decided yet if this deserves it's own post.
BTW, his Shins video is one of the most overrated videos of 2006! Yes, exclamation.
