Her links were probably getting all kinds of hits and she got nervous.
Bring on the video, cant wait to see it.

I don't understand why, despite chroma key evidentally and apparently being used, the editor has seemingly gone for a 'snip out and superimpose' technique, as we see in the photos?
and its a bad chroma key at that...you can see the green in his hair and it was lit very poorly.

NEW @U2 SEE THE 'BOOTS' VIDEO ONLINE FRIDAY
January 27, 2009

This is unique: The music video for "Get On Your Boots" will be available online this Friday, not on MTV or VH1, but on a newspaper web site. Yep. The Irish Independent says they'll have the video starting at 4:55 pm Dublin-time this Friday. (If you need it, here's the current Dublin time.)

But, this may be from rough drafts.
Urm, I hope, it's a rough draft.
Oddly enough, it looks like Bono's in the same exact outfit as he's wearing in these pics from the old 'new video' thread. Notice also that he's holding a microphone. At the time of that thread, we dismissed those pics as coming from a November 2006 photo shoot in Australia, potentially for some Motorola project that was scrapped (See below). Either that 2006 date didn't really apply to those pics and they're from the new video, or the person who created these new images somehow got a hold of some other pictures from that photoshoot and decided to make these up.
I think you are all missing the visual style.
I think Bono is meant to appear roughly "cut out" and put onto the background - as in a magazine collage.
exactly.
i understand it, its still a bad chroma key...he can still look like a cut out without the chroma key green around him

In the smaller version it doesn't look as bad.
Perhaps this video was especially made to view on iPod nano's.
I just keep wondering about this :
Ireland leads the way with new U2 album
Edge also waxed lyrical about the video for the single, made by French director Alex Courtes, who was also responsible for the video for 'City Of Blinding Lights'. "It's based around the idea that men have fucked things up so badly, politically, economically and socially that it's really time we handed things over to women. We had our doubts when we saw a rough cut – but the finished video is brilliant. He's really nailed it."
This doesn't add up together :
Alex Courtes video is finished -
Sigh, I guess some people just don't get it.
Let them repeat black and white "band playing in a room" videos ad nauseum.
So has anyone figured out why the new video is getting a lame rollout on the Irish Independent site? What happened to using iTunes or YouTube?
Well if it is real, it's not our posters but U2 who should be embarrassed, for doing a video with graphics inferior to those our own interferencers can create with photoshop, and for repeating themselves- something they say they'd never do- with the kitchy art designs imitated from the 12 year old Pop album.
I prefer their repertoire of "we're walking around outside" videos myself.

I just noticed your sig, Galeongirl, and I'm very flattered that you appreciate the wisdom of my musings so much that you've dedicated a space in your sig just for me.
