Since we have Glenn's thread, I thought we should have Don's!

And I'm going to have to review these, too, before I make a choice! So, anyone feel free to pick one!

Good idea for a thread for Don, Brooke.

While I love Don's videos (with the glaring omission of EIDN), most of his videos are thematic and stylistic, not what I would necessarily consider sexy. He has a moment of embrace with then-girlfriend Maren Jensen in Not Enough Love in the World which is very nice; and he looks fabulous singing about love and longing in Last Worthless Evening; but one of my very favorite videos with him is actually Inside Out, which is Tricia Yearwood's song, because he is so cute and playful with her.

Before I comment further, I'm going to have to review his videos as well. What we go through..... :wink:

Next, we need to talk about his sexiest live performances in concert. I have certain bootlegs that I watch over & over...I could write forever on that topic!

Y'know, FP, I have to agree.
Thanks for that gorgeous capture of Don from that video.

After watching many Don videos.. (oh the torture hehehe :D ) I definately agree with Freypower, The Last Worthless Evening is Don's sexiest video IMO. Don just ooozes with charm and appeal in this video and he had me entranced from start to finish. :D :P

I don't usually go for the long-haired Don look, but after viewing all these, I have to go with The Last Worthless Evening. Those close-ups of Don with his hair down, and he's running his hands through his hair, and he's singing to the camera... oh my gosh! So sexy!

FP, can I ask a favor of you? I have been watching Don's videos over again (it's a dirty job, I know, but someone has to do it 8) ) and there is one moment I just love. Your screen caps are so wonderful--when you get a chance, could you try to get another one of Don from Last Worthless Evening--when he cradles his head in his arms as he sings "People inside their houses, with the shades pulled down."

Thank you!

After careful consideration, I think Don is sexiest in Last Worthless Evening! That capture above is perfect! :heart: And I'm sure the one that DonFan is wanting will be very nice indeed! <SIGH>

I think he also looks great in Not Enough Love in the World. :smitten:

You know, he really doesn't go all out in the videos like Glenn did. In so many of them he stays in the background. Silly boy! Don't be shy Don-hot as you are, you should show yourself off more! :nod:

I hear ya. I never noticed until I watched them all together like this that almost all of his videos are set up as other people doing things while we hear Don sing, with only the occasional shot of Don himself.

I'm waiting until my free time on a Thursday to look at these. Soda, thanks for the links. Until now, I'd only seen BOS and EIDN, the latter being on Launchcast. EIDN is a great song, but I find the video somewhat disturbing - Don with what looks like a bullet wound to his head, and ?horns!!!

Taking what we can get, here's a screenshot of the moment when Don almost-kisses his girlfriend on camera during the NELITW video.

And here's a version where I zoom in (sorry it's a bit blurry):

TLWE is a hot video. However, I am not a fan of long hair Don either. So I have to agree with Maleah - the beach scenes in The Boys of Summer are uber hot - especially near the end with the silhouettes. I always wondered if that is really Don in parts of the video though. I think it may be a double - does anyone know for sure?

Also, in the EOTI video, the love scenes are very hot, even though the rest of the video is far from sexy. But the contrast is great in showing how masterfully Don's lyrics carry a double meaning. Again, is that Don in the EOTI love scenes?

And thanks for those caps Soda. Don is very hot (albeit blurry) in that NELITW video. :wink:

I think the only parts in BOS that feature Don are the ones where he's riding around in the back of the truck, his face clearly visible. The rest is some other guy.

This is Don dancing with the girl, right? Or is it a double?

Exactly. TLWE is VERY hot.......but I'm not a big fan of long hair on Don. But oh....boys of summer! I think that has to get my final vote :D

I wondered the same thing! It could be Don, but we don't know for sure.

Regarding LWE I will go & do some more screen shots from it. In the meantime here is another one.

The more I think about it, the more I think it's a probably a double. Otherwise, why not show his face? But I'd like to think it's Don, lol.

Great caps of LWE, Soda! Thank you.

Don just must not be comfortable with "acting"! Does anyone know if the girl in LWE is Elaine Irwin-Mellencamp, John's wife? It really reminds me of her and I think she is soooo pretty.

I never really liked long haired Don either, but in LWE he looks great with it! :heart:

He's not. In one of his 80s interviews with MTV, he said something to the effect of, "You guys are costing me a fortune making videos. It's not enough to sing, now I have to act too. You know, go out there and be a personality!"

Yeah - I agree that Don has probably never been totally comfortable with 'acting.' After all, he is a drummer at heart, isn't he - someone who is more comfortable on stage behind the drums rather than front and center.

*sigh* It's beautiful.......absolutely beautiful :D I can't tell you in words how much I love that photo! :laugh: And no problem ;) I'd love to find MORE like that! I'm kind of suprised there's not more of them together when they were younger.
