The video, which portrays young actors in a New York artist's studio and does not draw on the song's political subtext, was directed by Bruce Weber, who had worked with the band before, most notably for their video for the 1990 single "Being Boring". Directed by: Bruce Weber Release year: 2002 |
London | |

Miracles | |
The music video, directed by Howard Greenhalgh, reportedly cost nearly L100000. It primarily shows human figures interacting with
cascades of water and milk, captured in intricate detail by the slow-motion footage (Greenhalgh also made extensive use of water
in the video for "Congo" (1997) by Genesis). The buildings on the background include Calatrava's Gare do Oriente and others from
the Nations' Park area in Lisbon. Directed by: Howard Greenhalgh Release year: 2003 Produced by: Genevive Simmers |
Flamboyant | |
The "Flamboyant" promotional music video was directed by Nico Beyer. Heavily based on aspects of Japanese popular culture,
it tells the story of a Japanese office worker who aspires to appear on television variety show Kasou Taishou where guests perform
silly stunts. He envisions a billiards-based routine, where he and others portray living balls on an enormous pool table. At the end
of the video, they perform their routine successfully on the show. The story footage is intercut with fake Japanese-style television
commercials where the Pet Shop Boys offer various products such as an automatic ironing machine and a car called Boxy.
The video was finally released on DVD on the documentary A Life in Pop, although the disc doesn't mention the video's inclusion.
Some territories, like Canada, don't feature the video. Directed by: Nico Beyer Release year: 2003 Produced by: Will Oakley |
I'm With Stupid | |
The video, filmed at Alexandra Palace in North London features David Walliams and Matt Lucas of Little Britain.
In the video, the duo stage a performance in which they play the roles of Tennant and Lowe and mime "I'm with Stupid"
while dressed in Very-era outfits (mainly from the "Can you forgive her?" and "Go West" promotional campaigns).
They are accompanied by a group of dancers, also dressed in similar costumes. The video ends with Walliams and Lucas
asking for the approval of the audience, which is revealed to be Tennant and Lowe themselves, bound to their seats. Directed by: Bluesource Release year: 2006 Produced by: Ben Roberts for Colonel Blimp Ltd. |
Minimal | |
On 5 June 2006, it was announced that the video, directed by Don Cameron, was completed in Paris.
The video itself, complementing the theme, was kept visually minimal; it consists largely of shots of the band silhouetted against
a backdrop of flashing white neon lamps. These are interjected with shots of a dancing couple, exhibiting a sexual tension that contrasts
against the sparse, rigid performance scenes. Directed by: Don Cameron Release year: 2006 Produced by: Matthieu Sibony |
Numb | |
The music video for "Numb" was directed by Julian Gibbs, Julian House, and Chris Sayer, who describe it as inspired by
"Russian constructivist cinema". Gibbs had previously directed a 2005 BBC television adaptation of The Snow Queen,
which Sayer worked on as animation director. In addition, the Gibbs and House pair have previously directed music videos
for Primal Scream, Luke Slater, and Doves. Directed by: Julian Gibbs, Julian House, Chris Sayer Release year: 2006 Produced by: Trevor Horn |
Integral | |
The idea is that it’s sung from the point of view of the authoritarian New Labour-style government. “If you’ve done nothing wrong,
you’ve got nothing to fear” is always used as a justification for ID cards. What we object to about ID cards is that they’re intelligent
cards with a data strip that can link to a central database containing personal information which may be shared with America; when
you say you don’t want that, they always say that if you’ve done nothing wrong you’ve got nothing to hide. But I think we all have
a right to privacy. I feel it’s a move that suggests we have to justify ourselves to the state before the state will trust us, and I think
it’s for us to trust the state and not the other way round. I think the government has to win our trust, not us win their trust. We put
the lyrics on the website earlier this year when there was a fuss brewing about ID cards, and Chris had phoned me up to say that
some junior minister had used the word “integral” in defending it. There was a big article in the Evening Standard about the song.
But the song has got a wicked kind of humour as well. It’s meant to be someone giving a speech really, madly justifying all of this,
with a lot of energy behind. Directed by: Lawrence Blankedbyl, Jeff Wood, Wade Shotter Release year: 2007 Produced by: Jacqui Kenny, Tim Francis |
Love etc. | |
The music video was directed by Dutch digital artist Han Hoogerbrugge. The website Stereogum described it as a "horizontally scrolling animated video [that] is part Sonic The Hedgehog (dated video game reference!) and part Pac Man (chomping down on hearts, shamrocks, and cash money), with a lineup of Chrisses, Neils, and others shouting, flexing, unmasking, and turning into draculas."
