count me out of this. disgusting.
I should mentioned that this is one of those videos that would be appreciated mostly by the real geeks.
It also needs to be taken in context, and it's relevance acknowledged based on the impact it had at the time. (A time when this aesthetic was considered cutting edge, and was rarely seen before in relatively low budget videos.)
Cool! Not my favorite FLA song, and not even a very good video, but a nice change from the usual on here.
Indecently exciting. But then I am enjoying a hitherto closeted Depeche Mode phase.
