You Turn Me On, You Lift Me Up

Whoever decided it was a good idea to shoot music videos in nature should never work again... look, I appreciate a good sunset or a view from a mountain, but in music videos it pretty much equals boredom... this band never quite duplicated the success they had with "Don't You (Forget About Me)", but this song was also a hit for them despite the boring video and the creepy drummer staring right at me as he beats his skins... here is Simple Minds with "Alive and Kicking"...

the drummer when hes staring has a chemtrail going behind his head there is several chemtrail refernces this song talked about the coming perilos times and they included chemtrails then the players would look at the cameraman and the singer would repeatedly try to show his audience the chemtrail and residue above their heads waving his hands and looking up towards and to the sky now watch it and the creepy stare makes sense hes thinking talking to you the watcher to look hes giving you that look .most won't even know what i'm saying so its for those that figure it out.
