oh yeah..he gives the finger in OMA too! damn, that's an entertaining video, but still...only honorable mention. I have to remember the classics, like Thief, 4am, and IAH :mrgreen:

I don't remember him actually giving the finger, but I do remember him grabbing his middle finger with his other hand...

He could have done it. They don't censor the middle finger in Canadian television. :mrgreen:

:lol: :lol:

:lol: :lol:

so from OLp videos we've learned thats its okay to sit in the rain, spraypaint chinese symbols into our hair and throw all legal documents out of windows... I'm not complaining...

My Fav would be 4am, with Automatic and OMA a close tie at second... I think Automatic just gives a great sense of their onstage presence... im not much of a fan of SOT either, and not a fan of Hope too much either...

oh yeah, and Birdman is pretty interesting too....

I love them all, but I'd have to go with Out Of Here. It was their first, so you have to give them credit for that, but I love it the least because it has no meaning to go along with the song. At least SOT has a bit of "Defying Gravity" in it...

Actually, Out Of Here did have a bit of meaning to the song. The drummer was in a cage "You're in the cage and we've got the key". Apparently they lost the key, so they left him in there and hired Jeremy. :mrgreen:

HAH! Triple post!

My favourite video is tied between a bunch.

In Repair: Oli's art never fails to amaze me.
One Man Army: I can't get enough of Raine falling. for your li-i-ies!
Is Anybody Home: I love the concept. I mean, imagine actually waking up one day and everybody's gone!
Thief: Simple, yet effective.
Clumsy: I love the endless cup of water.
Naveed: Something about the rawness of the live parts really gets me. Plus the doll. Always with the doll.

I guess that's it. Tomorrow I'll probably be able to come up with a completely different list. :freak:

Am I the only person who thinks Automatic Flowers is kinda boring? In a way, it reminds me of Somewhere Out There....
I faced death. I went in with my arms swinging. But I heard my own breath and had to face that I'm still living. I'm still flesh. I hold on to awful feelings. I'm not dead... My chest still draws breath. I hold it. I'm buoyant. There's no end.

It is kind of boring, but you have to remember that it was the band's first try at self-producing a video. They just wanted to do something simple for it. I think they pulled it off quite well.

I liked Automatic Flowers. A video with just the band in it and nothing more.
Do you know how many screen grabs I got out of it? :P
