journey - separate ways
directed by Tom Buckholtz
....yyyyyyeeeeeeeesssssssssss. So 80s it hurts.
I believe this video would qualify as "awesomely bad", to quote a phrase oft' used on VH1.
But it is a cool song. Still love it today!
yeah, this is one Journey song I can rock out to and not feel too stupid.
When I go to bed tonight I'm still going to be wondering if the director of this was trying to be ironic or if he was just insane? The ridiculous canted angles, the way Steve Perry looks from off screen into the camera on every line he sings, the "it was all a dream" ending. This is the video that everyone who tries to do a purposely campy performance video is parodying whether they know it or not.
Journey for life esse!
otc: perhaps mockery is a form of flattery.
Saw Steve Perry at a Chinese joint in North Hollywood a month ago. Looks EXACTLY the same. Amazing. Too bad we had to go our separate ways.
Thanks for posting this! Seeing a snippet on a VH1 show has none of the impact of seeing if fully here.
Without any concept or sense to anchor this, each and every anachronistic molecule is fee to shine its brightest.
I'll need to see about getting such a keyboard and fixing it to my wall.
