I usually like to look at a couple videos each week. This week INXS makes the job easy for me, by putting two songs on one video.
A great pair of videos, and a nice contrast. In fact, we have total opposites. I Need You Tonight is a masterpiece of post-production effects, a collage in motion. Meanwhile, Mediate isn't edited at all -- it's one continuous shot. How fucking cool is that? (I can only think of a handful of videos that are done in a single shot. If you can think of any, let me know!) Best of all, the videos are cool, and so very solidly in the style of the 1980s.
