Guest idol_wild Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 A film group recently approached Kartta to submit the song for one of their projects - to make a music video to a song in 4 weeks.Here's what they made: They have asked the band for feedback and I thought I'd stick it up here and see if any of you guys had some feedback to offer - good/bad/indifferent.I think it has some decent moments actually, but they have missed the point and theme of the song entirely, it seems. But I think almost everyone does, to be honest.Kartta on MySpace Music - Free Streaming MP3s, Pictures & Music Downloads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biz Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 I would have liked it more if they had starved the fat kid for a few weeks and shaved his head for the final scenes, but YEAH, groovy gravy baby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stichman Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 This just reminds me that Henri Got Cancer is probably the best song to come out of Aberdeen ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyEB Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 It had something of the look of a Rocky training montage, which I liked. Every time I hear that song now I will imagine how ace Kartta would sound soundtracking Rocky.I love Rocky, he ended the Cold War you know.Belting tune.

The59Sound Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 I can't watch the video just now, but I'd just like to echo Stich's sentiment as regards the fact that Henri Got Cancer is dizzyingly brilliant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
framheim Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 i see what you mean about missing the point of the song but they did not bad. i'd have liked them to match the pacing of the song a bit more. it seems like they had a concept they liked and then the music was incidental to the video up until maybe the very end.

Guest treader. Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 Okay I just watched this. The video is great and all, but that kid is fucking TERRIBLE at Hopscotch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qzdiablo Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 yeah they should try and match the pace of the editing with that of the song. there were a few shots of like 10 seconds where there was no obvious action. it would've been better if these were broken up, by cross-cutting with something else maybe.

groovy Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 first of all... I totally forgot how awesome that song issecondly, I have to agree with whats already been said, the video just doesn't seem to match the song. Its not a bad video, just doesn;t quite go...

Guest treader. Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 I'm just gutted that 'Henri' in the video's battle with cancer wasn't documented in the papers... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alkaline Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 Yeah, the video doesn't do the song justice. It's just some kids dicking around and nobody likes that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ca_gere Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 Yeah, the video doesn't do the song justice. It's just some kids dicking around and nobody likes that I agree with that. Great song but the video isn't very good at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Milner Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 i dont really get what the video is about tho be honest, then again i dont understand the song either so i guess ive got no hope Some cool bits in the video like, never been a huge fan of that songs but it does grow on you a bit.

I don't really get most of the video (although I did guess one might "get cancer" at the end) and I don't think much of the song either 8-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Exposure @ Lemon Tree Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 I love this tune. Doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo etc etc. Nice and catchy!The video's okay, and the idea behind it etc is fine - not bad for a couple of kids. Better than I could have done!!
