*This is promo photography from "The Man Who."I felt like saying that just so you know, you wouldn't think I randomly stuck a picture from National Geographic in the banner... anyways.
It's 12:00 on Thursday February 7th, 2007. And like I promised, we will be starting the VIDEO SHOWDOWN *cheers!*
First I'd like to give a big hug across the pond to Typing to Reach You. One, for not sending me an angry PM on how I stole his trademark, and two, for helping generate the list randomly. So... big thanks buddy!
There are 5 groups of five TRAVIS music videos. The list in each group was generated randomly. I have provided a YouTube link to each video just in case you need to compare and contrast.
Out of each group, pick your LEAST favorite video.
Aaaaaaaand we're off like Gangbusters!

This is an interesting showdown! I had to go with how entertained I am watching the video than how much I like the song. Here are my least faves of the bunch:

Damn, am I the only one who really liked the video for "Happy?" I love that video! It's so simple (black & white, performance video), which complements the kind of bombastic nature of the song... well, it works for me!

I like it, but I like the others in the group more. |

I'm all over the black and white. And I think the crazy moving of the camara works with the song. Plus I love the dog at the end! Although, I'm not really sure what that is about? |

It's a bit tame compared to the other one, isn't it? |
