    Default No video for the Allnighter

    I was just looking at my singles page, and I realized that The Allnighter was the only major single he released that didn't have a video (the others - All Those Lies, That Girl, and River of Dreams - seem to all be afterthought singles that didn't even get true picture sleeves). I wonder what the deal was there? Maybe they only had the budget for two videos, so they just did Sexy Girl and Smuggler's Blues? It's still odd that they released the title track as a single but didn't make a video for it. Wouldn't a video for the Allnighter have been HOT? Wasted opportunity, lol.

    I didn't know The Allnighter was released as a single. However. There was also no video for Heartache Tonight.

    Are you sure there was never an Allnighter video? Maybe it turned out so PG13, it just couldn't be shown where impressionable eyes may have viewed it and had inappropriate thoughts put in their head! (ie. dreamer)

    lol! Maybe Molly. I still can't believe that oversight of Heartache Tonight, the best and most rockin' song on that album.

    Leaving aside the quality of Heartache Tonight - it was the first single. It went to #1 and eventually won a Grammy. Yet they did three other videos for the album. I suppose they did them after HT had gone to #1 because they were all done at the same time.

    I don't think I could have handled a video!

    Only, dreamer, that you'd be spending your days watching the video on a continuous loop, and you would never be compelled as to seek gainful employment ever ever again!
