Shameless Videos
May. 27th, 2003 08:26 amShould I care that people keep making videos entitled Shameless ******* Video?
Shameless Techno Video was pretty awful and today Jebadia released Shameless Country Video which at least is an enjoyable amv... but it's not in any way shameless.
I think the main thing that annoys me is that people use the name but not the idea behind it. SRV is a shameless rock video because it contains the clichés which can be found in rock videos - it's not shameless just because it uses rock music.
Neither of the above videos follow this idea, they have just picked the name in a fairly arbitrary manner with little relation to the content of the video. Certainly Jebadia's video could have really done with a non-shameless name as there is nothing shameless about it.
TommyRude once asked me if he could make a Shameless Rap Video. God help us all.
