Citizen Cope Video

The new Citizen Cope video for Back Together features big Clarence strolling down a bridge for 3 minutes and 3 seconds. The only way this video could be any better would be if Greenwood were reflecting on 19th century pioneer life and floating down the river Oregon Trail style accompanied by 6 oxen and a sudden onset of dysentery while encountering friendly or hostile Native Americans.

Memphis Video

Do you often find yourself wondering what that dude Torquil Campbell’s (from Stars) other band sounds like? (The answer is: like Stars) The band is called Memphis and their latest album, A Little Place In The Wilderness will be released in the US sometime in early 2007. You can check out Memphis’ first video, “I’ll Do Whatever You Want” on the Tube. Word is, Memphis will even do that thing that Meatloaf has refused to do for almost a decade now. Meatloaf is such an asshole.
