Don't Trust Snakes video pick
	
    
    
	         
   It may shock you to learn that despite my membership in the MTV Generation, I haven't watched very many music videos in the last 20 years or so.  Mostly on "Beavis and Butt-Head," and even that was a decade ago.  I suspect, without proof, that a lot of the best videos came out during the first few years of the medium, in the first half of the 1980s, when I was still watching a reasonable amount of MTV.  Hard to pick a favorite video from that era, although the best moment in a video may well have been Bowie's Jesse Jackson line from 
"Jazzin' for Blue Jean".  Classic.
Anyway, I ran across a very cool video tonight on iTunes.  It has an enigmatic/escape theme that reminds me of certain of those classics from my youth.  Check it out:
She Wants Revenge:  "Tear You Apart" (directed by Joaquin Phoenix)

"Tear You Apart" is a great song. It tells the classic story of Boy Meets Girl, Boy Becomes Obsessed With Girl, Boy Wants Nothing More Than To Tear the Girl Apart.
Timeless.
A particularly classic story, I should think, if you live in Reno.
Hey! We here in Reno are NOT stalkers. We're just really, really passionate and really, really persistent.
I was trying for a divorce joke but I think it was just too much of a stretch.
