seeing these makes me wonder- was there ever a "making of" programme for this video?

 

[FallingStar]

Hmm, I'm not sure, but there were some pics from the set of the video. I know that there is a black and white one around with bono standing rather on the left and people stand around him.......

 

[verte76]

I *love* this video!! It has so much personality, really delightful.

There is. It's a good one too.

I soooo dig the halo. Bono's all

Yeah, right.


Anyone have the HUGE one of him offering the flowers?

[RockNRollDawgie]

This is one of my favorite videos! Bono reminds me in video of some sort of demented children's TV host. LOL!

I love this video so much! I have a lot of stills, but Snapfish hasn't been working for me lately.

I love this part of the video on out...I love how, at the very end he puts his hat to his chest and you see him mouthing, "I'm sorry". That's so cute. . Every time that part comes up, I just want to give him a big hug. What a sweetheart. .

This whole video's adorable...I like the dog puppet, and the heart-shaped cloud, and the "I'm sorry" banners, too. .

Definitely my favorite video of these guys' thus far. .

This video is one of their best ideas ever, what a cute concept! However, from a PLEBA point of view, it's not a favorite since I don't find Bono attractive in it. His hat, glasses, suit and haircut are atrociously geeky and unhot. I've seen nerdy scientists with more sex appeal. So, by hot Bono standards, it doesn't work for me at all, but it was a good idea. I like how they incorporated Ali, the band and the brother. It's also cute that it was based on a true story. He wrote the song for Ali because she was mad he missed her birthday. When he takes off those glasses and gives her "the eyes", that's the best part. Who could resist those eyes?

 

[Sherry Darling]

Yeah, he doesn't physically look his best in this one, but he's so dorky that its totally endearing and he makes me laugh my ass off in it, which is always sesy. =

[U2Kitten]

Yeah, it's not a it's an 'aww shucks' type of thing. His acting is so cutesy!

 

[FallingStar]

Forgot about another one I had:

Bono is all 'wtf?'.

 

[verte76]

I agree that it's not exactly Bono at his sexiest. It's not a sexy video; it has tons of personality, it's very clever, and makes me laugh my ass off. So from a PLEBA point of view it's not "hot" but it's great.

I that video

I love those parts too When he mouths "I'm sorry"

And the dog puppet, I can't believe I didn't have that still before this thread (thanks for posting it FallingStar)

 

[Jam Jar]

There is. It's a good one too.

!! really? must be really neat!

 

[Keocmb]

I think he looks gorgeous. I love the Costello thing he had going on. But that's just me and my low standards for Bono hotness.

Thanks for the new sig pic, FS.

LOL.

Yeah, looks-wise it's not my personal favorite (the video that wins that award has its clip in my sig......).

But concept-wise...

And like the others have said, it's more him being his dorky yet loveable self that makes this video so endearing.

Exactly.

Every girl deserves to have a husband or boyfriend who is that sweet and thoughtful.

I think he's pretty hot in it.

This isn't the MTV Making the Video, but it's some behind the scenes stuff that I found. I can't guarantee anything because either the links are broken or my computer just won't let me view it. I'll get around to e-mailing the site owner sooner or later...

Let me know if this works for anyone else.
