luannl Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 Can anyone tell me the name of a music video that I'm trying to remember? The singer is hopping or jumping throughout the video. It wasn't a big hit (not the music video "Jump!), and it was in the early days... and it' driving me CRAZY trying to remember! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeBB Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 Well, it was actually 1978, and he only jumps through the choruses, but I wonder if you might be thinking of Ca plane Pour Moi by Plastic Bertrand: http://www.wat.tv/video/plastic-bertrand-ca-plane-170bn_11azd_.html LBB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MindCrime Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 I was thinking it was a Thompson Twins video, but I doubt that's correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luannl Posted April 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2009 (edited) LeeBB, good match, based on my few snippets of info... but that's not it. Laurie....hmm... can't find the REM video on YouTube... it MIGHT be it (I guess I shouldn't have said "it wasn't a big hit based on my memory) I'll keep searching and let you know... MindCrime... Had fun looking up some Thompson Twin videos. Maybe I'll find it... THANKS for the responses. The quest continues. ...ARRGHGHH!!!

MindCrime Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 Since you said "Early Days" I'm assuming you mean 81-84'ish? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyberjudge Posted April 23, 2009 Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 Could it be "White Wedding" - Billy Idol? I there was also a window in "Hot in the City"... but I might be wrong...

MindCrime Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 I saw that video the other day on VH1 Classic, funny it didn't cross my mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokewraith Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 (edited) Ah! You're welcome luannl, and thanks Laurie, glad I could help. It was the first thing that crossed my mind when I read your post. Though to be honest, all i could remember about it was the chorus and his hopping about.
