Someone made a brilliant video for "I Want You To Be My Love". I found it on Youtube. Great concept and visually stunning.

I guess I just assumed it was unofficial. I had never seen it before.

Very nice.

Brilliant.

It says it is "not official video" in the notes there...but I am sure curious who did it and what K&L think of it!

i sent the link to K&L, they hadn't seen it before and were pretty blown away by it. from karin, "I'm just sobbing... in a good way. wow. "

(imho) it's beautifully done, very creative, inspired, imaginative. beautiful.

Wow.

that's a really creative video. i hope k and l see it.

much as I got caught off guard with "hey, I remember Linford having that hat and that haircut!" Makes me wish MTV didn't blow so hard. Mad Props to who ever put it down.

THAT is one hell of a video! very worthy of the OtR brand name. Not official?? well someone needs to show that to Karin & Linford and get their official stamp of approval! I can't believe they know nothing of this! I'm sure they'll like it...

Wow. That was awesome.

If there's ever an OTR DVD (you know, if they get around to it while DVD's still exist ) they should totally try to have that included...OTR has a closer relationship with fans than a lot of artists, so I think having a bit of fan-created content as a 'bonus' to an official DVD would be kind of neat.

umm...

brilliant.

I saw it a couple weeks ago. I thought it was very creative and really captured the essence of the song.

"This video has been removed due to terms of use violation."



grrr.....

Seems to be gone, y'all.

Apparently not everyone thought it was so wonderful.

wow. It was there yesterday!
huh

looks like Virgin went Backporch on our asses?

well that sucks! its too bad Karin and Linford never got a chance to see it...

I missed it!!

Anybody have a copy of it? I really wanna see it

Ok...now I get it.

That is a shame it was removed though, it was very nicely done.

They (K & L) saw it...and liked it very much

yeah, that's too bad... and you're right, I'll bet they would have liked it if they had seen it...
oh well.

So how about another YouTube argument, huh?

They paid $1.65 billion for YouTube, but it's not going to be worth much if there isn't anything on it people actually want to watch.

Still, I really think whoever made it should submit it to K&L for consideration on an OTR DVD, if one ever gets made.

an Over The Rhine DVD... a ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.... whew, that's a GOOD ONE!

Yeah, by the time that happens DVD's will be going the way of the CD.


It's still weird....there's prog bands who've sold fewer records in their careers than OTR does with one album who've still managed to get a few cameras in and put a DVD out.

I have this feeling (no evidence, just a feeling) that with so much care put into OTR's images on their albums and such, that any DVD they do would have to be equally artsy, which is a shame, since I think just getting a decent camera crew at a Taft show would suffice. And with OTR being a fairly stationary band onstage, a lot of angles could be covered with stationary cameras. I don't really know what the holdup is, unless there's some reason K&L just don't want to do one. I'm surprised BackPorch didn't push for it, it would've been a better "end of contract" release than than the compilation CD. Oh well...maybe someday.

oh yeah... just guessing here like you, but I'm pretty sure that OtR are ultra perfectionists regarding what gets released (hell, they almost didn't release GDBD due to it being a demo!). Based on the little snippets they let show of the video that was once in the works, if they had just released what they had of that in some coherent way, I would have been extremely happy. I think sometimes the artists are their own worst enemy...

Yeah, I remember those clips. I was hoping eventually they'd just give up on the documentary (since that obviously isn't going to happen) and release the live footage, since that's what I really am interested in seeing. I'd much rather have a nicely shot OTR show from start to finish than a Rattle & Hum style mix of various sources. The latter would be more artsy, but I think just a straight up concert on DVD would be a lot more fulfilling....then add the "behind the scenes" stuff or studio footage as bonus features.

Really...it's time. Get a few cameras in the Taft Theater and film that sucker.

keep your eyes open, this may resurface someplace "very accessible" soon.

It's already gone from YT!!

What?!? they took that video off YouTube?!? NO!!!
Now Karin and Linford may never get a chance to... (oh nevermind)

Do you mean this one??

Oh wow! I loved that...was that the same one??

theaterboi01 is the hero of the day!
I was afear'd I wasn't ever going to see that masterpiece again!
someone, quick, record this!

I didn't notice the use of the spoons before. perhaps an homage to Mr. Spoons? (Karin's dad(?), if I recall correctly from Serpents and Gloves)

I've always wanted to be a hero... haha!!!! trust me I've got my copy of the vid and I'm NOT letting it go easily... sharing.. sure.. but its too good to lose even if it doesn't star K&L

Awesome. Thanks!

I just saw it today for the first time. Who put this together?? Genius! Except I kept wanting to tell the girl if she pulled the string more taut, it would be easier to hear his bedspringesizer...

Karin would probably like this, if she hasn't seen it already.

This is so lovely and very sweet.

Oh good it's back......what's going on at YT??!

They have to comply with legal issues if something is copyright material (like the song in question). Who knows... maybe Virgin axed it b4.
