What's a good music video?
One that makes you fall ass-over in love with a song that up until that moment you hated.
Gwen rolling around on a bed looking uncannily like "This Is Used To Be My Playground" era Madonna is great, but the new model brunette Gwen is an absolute triumph!
Luvs it!

She's pretty hot as a brunette. And the instrumental intro of the video is beautiful.
I miss the harajuku girls though.

Hurrah! When I got the album this was instinctively my favourite track, thank heavens for common sense.

Gwen is stunning with dark hair - she should definitely keep it. Does anyone else thinks she kinda looks like Penelope Cruz in the new vid?

So who is her co-star in this video? He looks nothing like Tony Kanal but seems to be a morph of various twentysomething actors -- Gael GarcĂa Bentley-Somerhalder, kind of.

Sophie Muller is a great video director, I must say. I love all the video's she's done for Garbage recently too...

Apparently, the new girlfriend in the video is actually Tony Kanal's new girlfriend Erin!

If this video is NOT Gwen looking at moving pictures in her high school yearbook of her and Tony then I'll be so pissed. Actually probably still love the vid but I'd love for Tony to be in it as it fits the song so well and [shallow] he's fit [/shallow]

She looks sooo much like Anna Nicole Smith and/or Marilyn Monroe in the bit with the short hair on the golden bed! :-D
Much better than the shit videos for Hollback Girl, which got old LAST JANUARY, and Rich Girl.

This is a very classy video and a lovely song and not a Harajuku girl in sight, wonderful.

Thanks god she's got it sorted! Brunette is amazing, no Harajuku girls is amazing, clothes, story, filming etc is amazing, song amazing. I wasn't expecting this after the train wreck that was Rich Girl, and as one poster said, the last video got old so quickly.

Some of it reminds me of the Domino Dancing video, but less sexy.
The rest is Gwen being a mature actress. Boo!

I was really worried that the ending would have Gwen and skinny rat-man get together. It's good that it doesn't look strained at all. It really goes to the point where you think it could upset Gavin, but it just veers away. I like.

Uck! It's shot like all of Sophie Muellers videos, that horrible soft yellow focus lighting that makes everything look a bad soap. Also the story is yawnsome, it doesn't feature Tony and seems far too sedate and dull for such a sparkly and bubbly song. Yawn.

I don't like it. It's so utterly unflattering! At some points Gwen looks (God forgive me) like a pig. I wanted Harajuku Girls to be released. How fab would that have been?

If Gwen looks like a pig in this video I want to look like a pig. She looks gorgeous and I'm happy that the Harajuku Girls are nowhere to be seen. Sorry but I think you should have gone to Specsavers.

i think it's gorgeous and blows crap pop videos and bad cgi (i'm looking at you toxic) out of the water.

Sorry but I think you should have gone to Specsavers. No, honestly, her make up is all wrong and that jumper she's wearing makes her look fowdy. I suppose it's a ballad and she should look as though she's in love....which means homely dowdy clothes.

Afterall, she wears about 300 different ones, and from what I can see she's smokin' in each and every one of them ..... Meanwhile, who knew a pair of legs could be so amazing!

It's a great video, detracts from the 80s sound the song has.
Reminds me of the 'These Words' promo, which Natasha Bedingfield didn't think would work for American audiences.

You really do need to check your eyes.
