I don't get some of you guys. I LOVE dmb's music videos. They are so much better than the hip hop rap crap and metal or punk stuff. All those videos are annoying, full of nothing but meaningless sex and just more crap. DMB's stuff is what MTV videos should be like. I was watching the DVD earlier today. WWYS is just so goofy, ants is sly and smooth (and dave said to the director how when he was young people would smack him in the head alot, lol). Who can not love the kewl sheer of So Much To Say (expecially with Dave being a crazy nutball in that steel room, and the mutli-dave shot, and leroi SMILING!). Then Crash is just such a kewl video, the slides with the texture really give it a great feel. Then Crush is just smooth jazz (and damn it, what a gorgeous Gibson Byrdland). Then the sheer beauty of the Space Between (when the rain coming down on all of them, and the slow shots of boyd and stefan at points, and the very end where who I still believe is meant to be Julia Grey, where he walks back to her, with the stars of the night).

I love them. Now time to download this one :) .

I liked it, represented the song well, and the band. Dave was grooving

I think it was a very strong video, and really represents us right now. Also, I have always liked american baby, but not a lot. But adding to it this video, makes me really like it.

Yeah, I think the song itself will take a little getting used to as all music does. But I really did think the video fit perfectly with the context of the song. That and it will a nice break from Kelly Clarkson, 50 cent, 3 doors down, alicia keys to hear and see Dave Matthews Band.
