Worst OLP video ever.

Oh well... not big on music videos anyway.

Like play them all the way through instead of the TRL 30 seconds followed by a 15 year old girl screaming about how hot she thinks Justin Timberlake is followed by her shoutout to her best friend's cousin's neighbor?

You're old. What you see on tv now is girls screaming about how hot Justin Beiber is. He was on MOD the other day, and he couldn't even walk to get outside to 'say hello to the fans.' Girls blocked the path, screaming and crying and making him take pictures with them.

On Topic: I totally forgot about the video, until I came home and saw a brief interview on ET Canada for it. Raine was being goofy and laughing... and I realized how nice his teeth are.

I'm with the general consensus here. I saw the first subtitle come in and I'm sure I said out loud, "Oh no." The warehouse they were in was super cool, and I thought how Steve was just sitting on the couch was a little boring -- they could've switched it up a bit -- and I didn't like the story much.

the story made absolutely no sense whatsoever.

A couple is being chased by goons and to evade said goons, the woman tells the dude to trust her......and they then proceed to hurl themselves off a building. Now, unless those goons were zombie's or Lando's ugly ass'd mom, no rational person would do that.

lol the funny thing is, even though the back story is lame, when you consider the lyrics of the song, it fits perfectly.

If you look at the video and just look at it, you won't really understand it...but I think if you look at it from a perspective of trying to find meaning, you will. I think the whole video fits in nicely with the meaning of song. Take the ending, she says to trust her and they jump off together, yet they never show them splattering to the ground. in my opinion it's like something in your life was screwed up and you gotta take chances and you gotta take that leap to help yourself get out of that situation...are you gonna make yourself stay in the rut or are you going to land safely and start new? As far as the band . i love the whole casual look of the video. I like how the band is just chillin in a room it reminds me of the way burn burn was made, very casual and non stressful just 4 guys in a room playing music. I always look deeply into music lyrics and music videos and take from it what i want, thats the thing about music that i love and appreciate..each person can have their own opinion.

No clue... I guess even working with kids everyday still doesn't keep me in the loop. I shoulda said The Jonas Brothers.. :lol:

I'm a teenager and I still have no idea who he is.

He's some youtube kid.

I think the Timberlake example worked better.

ClumsyGirl618 · Post by **ClumsyGirl618** » 10/22/2009, 8:19 pm

I googled him and I still have no clue... don't feel bad :nod:

Justin Beiber's a big deal on MuchMusic! All the tweenies love him, despite the fact that his balls have probably not dropped yet. He's a little rat. If you watched a lot of Much, you'd know that he's the bee's knees/cat's pajamas at the moment.

JoBro mania seems to have been tamed for a bit... haven't heard much lately.

I think i am going to burn this on to a dvd just so I can take a dump on it. It actually makes me want to take OLP off my favorite band list on Facebook.

As much as I love OLP you gotta admit that this video tarnishes their image quite a bit.

MindsOnLoan · Post by **MindsOnLoan** » 10/23/2009, 10:58 am

I'm pretty sure it could be argued that their "image" was already tarnished, oh, say... 7 years ago?

I'm not trying the bring up the whole Gravity thing again, just bringing up the point that they haven't exactly been known for their good music videos or "Wow!" music for quite some time now.

LifeRiot · Post by **LifeRiot** » 10/23/2009, 11:53 am

Known? Most of my friends thought they broke up after Happiness...

MindsOnLoan · Post by **MindsOnLoan** » 10/23/2009, 12:01 pm

Well, when their biggest international hit came out in 2002 (not to mention their highest ranking on Billboard), not 1999, I'd say that's pretty well known.

My girlfriend's cousin is Justin Beiber. He's kinda weird. I've met 'em twice. He tries to be all serious and cool.
