The video is...not great. These images would not have been my first choice. I don't understand the point of the flag. Plus the producers took the death-metaphor too literally. From my view it's the relationship that's doomed to die, not the literal person. I did enjoy the lighting in the palace; how the lights grow dim during more somber parts of the song. Plus I love Lana's facial expressions. There's certain parts of the video where she goes from looking like a confident seductress to an indignant, vulnerable little girl. Luckily I like the song enough to put up with the flaws in the video. I could listen to this song over and over.
I know I still need to write a real entry. Can someone just write one for me and plaster it on here? Shan, where the hell are you?
I'm here! I was hoping you would post about Yosemite so I wouldn't have to do it. That's so funny that you fell in love with that song! It sure is a unique one.
