the cd features the video on it, one of those enhanced cd thingies ....
What a great idea!! I've never heard of bands doing that before. Am I correct in thinking it's just a quicktime file on the cd, not any outdated video-cd format or anything like that? Any chance that Belle & Sebby will do something along the same lines on their next release? I'm surprised it's not a more popular idea. I'll have to but the Snow Patrol single, just to check it out! The songs not bad too, and I'll probably go to see the band play on tomorrow night. Cheers, JohnS. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

yeah, it's quick time ... works really well too, not many lost frames 'cos it's sort of "animated", and gosh, i can't stop watching it as Gary is sooo gorgeous ... :)

i think quite a few bands now have done it, the last foo fighters single did, and i know that one of smaller's ep's did too ... B&S have seen the cd, but i don't know what they thought of the video on the cd ... oh, here's a good reason to buy it, Richard and Neil are in the video (albeit briefly!) they're both in the play park bit at the end, Richard sitting on top of some wooden jungle gym thingy laughing, and Neil hanging upside down with a white jacket and glasses on. and i could swear that one of the other blokies in that bit is in the starlets ..

rayyy! sorry, i just get excited by these sorts of things ... tune into xfm if you can, 'cos the singles just gone on the a-list! someone requested B&S on the request hour yesterday afternoon too ... anyone owning up?? i'll stop dribbling now ... cheers, Katrina. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

It's been done a few times. I've got Enhanced CDs of the last Kylie single, Black Grape, Suede, and... wait for it.. Chitty Chitty Bang Bang Original Soundtrack! (The video is of the original movie trailer) They usually run on Win95 or Macintosh, and are Macromedia Director creations.
