Likely another matter of taste, this is one of my favorite videos of the 1990's. Brett Vapnek would get lots more $ to do videos if I were in charge.

[I don't agree with my 1st comment anymore, btw.]

Real *now in higher-res! - Vidnet Windows Media

         

I was told this was shot on the cheap, maybe $7,000 if my memory serves well.

It's worth so much more to me. The dancing, movement, editing and Miss Marshall are a pitch-perfect rendering of the unbelievably great song. Harrowing yet thrilling.

Not sure if those one & vidnet links actually work..my apologies.

         

girls are cool. no: hypnotic.

(only the real link worked for me (mac).)

         

vidnet worked for me.

Please post more Cat Power/Chan videos if you have them. I love her.

         

I read an interview with Chan right before this video came out. She said, "I'm making a video that's just like Madonna's "Lucky Star". Seriously.

         

song is really great. There is nothing at all special about this video.

         

She's hot.

         

I know, right?

         

i think it is edited well, but the dancers don't do it for me. it's a little too 'ironic.' or something like that, i can't really put my finger on it. however, chan marshall, is hypnotizing, and i can't take my eyes off her. maybe it's because she's completely off her rocker.

         

I'm gonna take a second time to complain about video size. I'm looking forward to the future when we finally get to watch these things like we watch them on TV: great quality, large video and sound.

I just watched the vidnet link online, zoomed in WMP (I only have dialup at home) and got 50% of the effect I get when I actually watch this on the TV.

There's nothing anyone can really do about this at this point, but it's starting to bug me.

In a similar vein when RES comes to town and these appear on the big screen, it's a different experience entirely for each video. I'm guessing theatres are the best places to watch videos??
