Re: Joe Walsh Music Video Survivor Game
I gotta agree about both videos, FP. I'm also sad that ODAAT is gone. And I also think it is time for Ordinary Average Guy to go. It's got a few cute moments, but otherwise it's nothing more than an ordinary, average video. (Sorry, couldn't help myself)! :grin: I'll definitely give it my vote this round if I can eliminate it, but, as usual, I'm waiting to see how the round plays out.
Re: Joe Walsh Music Video Survivor Game
This is when it gets hard for me. My votes before this one were obvious to me. I guess I'm going to have to vote for Space Age Whiz Kids because the song itself is so bad.
Re: Joe Walsh Music Video Survivor Game
Oh well, ODATT is gone now. Pity, as I also think it's a video celebrating Joe's new life and newly found freedom, so to speak. As such it isn't maybe a short movie as we would have expected in the 80s, but personally I find it nice and uplifting.
Having said that, I cast my vote again for Space Age Whiz Kids
Re: Joe Walsh Music Video Survivor Game
I hate to see ODAAT go too. If I had voted to eliminated OAG, it would had been tied and if I remembered correctly you take votes from the previous rounds when there's a tie and ODAAT would had still been gone. :worried: I hate to see it go too. I love the video too, but I couldn't save it.
Re: Joe Walsh Music Video Survivor Game
I should have joined the coalition and voted for OAG, too. It's just that in my mind some of the other videos are so much worse!
I do see that finally some of you are ready for SAWK to go, so
I vote for Space Age Whiz Kids.
Re: Joe Walsh Music Video Survivor Game
I had One Day at a Time as my #2. Though possibly because it was one of the least bad of a bad bunch. I like Space Age Whizz Kids. Maybe not the song, but the video has nostalgia and a message (maybe) that's still valid even if the technology has changed.
So sticking with Ordinary Average Guy.
Re: Joe Walsh Music Video Survivor Game
I have the same problem with Life of Illusion as I had with One Day at a Time - it's just outtakes from his album cover shoot set to music. I realize that this was MTV in its infancy before people were bothering to think of videos in terms of having meaning outside of just something to show during the song, but it really is no better than ODAAT in that regard.
I cast my vote for Life of Illusion.
Re: Joe Walsh Music Video Survivor Game
I'll stick with my pick from the past two rounds - Life of Illusion
Re: Joe Walsh Music Video Survivor Game
Going ahead and voting so I don't forget.
I will vote for Ordinary Average Guy.
Re: Joe Walsh Music Video Survivor Game
Voting so I don't forget too - Ordinary Average Guy once again.
