Every film-type video has a storyline. There's nothing wrong in trying to figure it out. It could be figurative, it could be literal, it could be allegorical. Who cares? Art is created for making comments on. How people choose to comment depends on how the art moves them and how they perceive it. There are no right or wrong answers.

I find it interesting but I have another angle in seeing it from the point of view of my job. Where are the celebrant and witnesses? Good thing that they aren't there!
Apart from that I've not made up my mind what I think. I prefer it to watch the video rather than listen to that recording of the song. ....it was them what drove me to drink!" [drunk] Grandad, Only Fools and Horses (UK sitcom) |

As monboy wrote. There havent been that many Alphaville videos at all, and not so many good. This is their first real video in 18 years so iam glad for that.
And the last years havent been so good when it comes to videos overall as the budget often are very low and alphaville dosent really have Lady gaga status. I think Fools is ther best video. Is it just me that notice that they slown down the song? Dont know if i like that, bit i guess mayby it fits the video. The beginning is a bit to slow with the dressing scene feels more lika a Commercial clip for something. I like how they work with lights and stuff and the combat scenes and the end is pretty awsome. The scenes where Marian just stand and singing dosent look that good all the time and mayby they could have film it another way there |

I liked all of Alphaville's videos! I think they were great! But they were hard to figure out-some of them. Like Universal Daddy, hard to figure out. And same with I die for you Today, I also couldn't figure that one out too. I know everyone has their own opinions on things, but the videos is what made the song.

What about switching your brains off, let your imagination wander, and just enjoy the video

Surprisingly. I do like this video.
You want truly artful videos but you want a commercial success for beloved band. These things are too often mutually exclusive in modern show-biz whereas this particular video is not even bereft of some not so senseless flood of thoughts inside. :) It's Lady Gaga times around, c'mon![smile2] I solemnly swear that I am up to no good.
