This vid should be posted with the DEATH OF A DIRECTOR posting. Because I'm gonna say it right now. In 6 months, this 'concept' will be seen in an ad of some form.coldandflu, 21. May 2008, 01:44
That was absolute crap. Cut Copy officially suck.wing, 21. May 2008, 02:22
a great idea, and an endearing clip with some charm in its simple narrative and nievity. Its got a lot going for it but seems like something was up in the execution. maybe something was lost in translation. I would have iked to have seen a huge umbrella parade at the end. The bedrooms section is sweet made me laugh..lisanowak, 21. May 2008, 02:23

I think this is a simple and elegant concept. Occasionally the video seems underwhelming but i think thats part of its charm. I'm sure the budget on this was a lot smaller then Nagi is use to working with. najork, 21. May 2008, 06:05

Both of the rain cloud vid's, un-original and boring. not into itprogosk, 21. May 2008, 12:57
embarassing, much?captainmarc22, 21. May 2008, 13:17
i like the band and director, and i don't dislike this video - but it doesn't seem right for the song. This kind of thing works great with whimsical music like Yuki. Was this shot in Japan?scooper, 21. May 2008, 21:21

oh i think its rather charmingfirst time i came across the concept was in a douglas adam's novel - dirk gently's holistic detective agency. the character was a rain god without realising he was being worshipped.
the girl at the end is FITTERS too.
nice one nagi

hasn't every director/creative had this idea at some point?i've read two (unpicked) similar pitches by well-known directors. and i wrote a short film with the same concept when i was in jr. high.
tragic, such a good track.

Even Travis weren't lame enough to use this concept.raymond_dezolay, 24. May 2008, 16:21
Already seen very similar in an ad.... with wind, rather than rain which was actually very effective.I couldn't watch this to the end though.
