Depeche Mode - Peace

tape.tv
tape.tv
unimpressive video shot in romania, using romanian actors
         
song title is peace not tape, dirs. jonas&francois, myspace
         
sorry i meant peace hence the still
but i got distracted
         
the song is great but the video, i dont know, peace from war? too obvious, there are too many ways to find peace conceptually speaking, maybe they (depeche mode) love the idea of wrong but in this case i believe it doesnt work
         
This is so frustrating. The video has so much potential and there are moments that feel quite genuine. Unfortunately, it all amounts to not much at all. Gorgeous cinematography though and the whole thing has a fantastic slice-of-life air about it.

agreed it's unimpressive but it's in no way bad
         
perhaps needed a touch more story, but I say it quite well done, moving in a way, and nice to hear depeche mode again, sounding good.
         
hmmm. couldn't get german link to work... but up on youtube.

agreed it's gorgeously shot, and all up for the idea... but it's a bit like being hit with a metaphorsledgehammer at times.
and, well kind of wanted something of a resolution (or maybe just more plot, less meaningful looks).

decent and good idea though, just to use a straight narrative cut like a nice promo.
         
Uh, Youtube link? Nothing but remix and live versions there.

What I see is.... couldn't face 'peace', back into war (army)?

Yes, a better editing would make this a very powerful video.
