I've watched the video a half dozen times now and wholeheartedly agree.
That said I really liked what they did with the lyric video better because for whatever reason it jived more with what was going through my brain when I listened to the track.

I wouldn't read to much into that though because as I've said before I'm not that crazy about music videos in the first place.

I realize their purpose in promoting the music and I do watch them but I really can't think of a single one that I've ever seen that fits in completely with what I visualize in my head when I'm listening to a song.

I think maybe it's because I listen in a visual way for lack of a better way to explain myself.
Does anyone get where I'm coming from?

I can't embed it here but the explicit director's cut of the video is now posted on the front page.

It's NOT SAFE FOR WORK due to nudity and drug use so view it in the comfort of your home.

Also check out the links on the front page to enter a contest to have Jane's play at your house and bring along some Playmates. :shock:

I was on the band's official site this morning and they've added a nice photo set from the video shoot.
You can check the pics out here:

Great video. Looks like Perry is sporting the classic Jane's garb, with the hat, beads and such - I dig it. Not sure why he doesn't come out like this in concert? He looks young too. I guess the hat really does it for him :)
