Remains to be seen what the strategy is going to be. After all the time and effort put into this video, it seems a waste to promote it only in Japan, especially when so many of us have insisted it would do well in the West. Of course, if he's going to have the robot onstage in Japan, it makes sense to put the video out now, regardless of what's happening with "Save Us" or even "Early Days." It's just strange that we've been teased about videos for the latter two, but we had no clue about a video for "Appreciate" until it came out!
that is what I was thinking! I expected videos to other songs but not this one
I like the idea behind the song. How it's in the future and humans are in a museum because they are extinct, robots are the 'new humans'. For the video, itself, I thought it was OK. Paul looks fantastic in it.
My thoughts exactly! The video is not quite as good as the idea. I think it's the scenes of the other people that feel a little forced. Paul and the robot are great!
I agree. The part that made me laugh, though, was at the beginning when Paul was sitting there totally still and turns to look at the robot, imagine that? Standing there, thinking you are looking at a wax figure of Paul but then he turns to look at you! LOL loved that.

Really like the video! Very different and I like that.
-
Really cracking video. Still not my favourite song on the album, but the video brings it alive. Outstanding creativity macca.

while Queenie Eye is the better song, "Appreciate" video is far much more cool. the idea of it is genius. BUT (forgive me guys) it could have gone far more imaginary. I wish there was no dancing from the humans in the museum. Most of all, Paul looks amazing, specially in the shot he is tuning his bass. The real Legend. and looks like he was as young as he was while doing a wings concert. You rock Paul

the year is 3116 and Macca is still Out There!

Wouldn't that be something? Would LOVE to see Paul have one more huge hit single. Finally a badass video to go with a great modern catchy pop song that fits with today's radio sound. I've actually heard this song on top 40 radio in Dallas. The novelty / viral aspect with the cool robot video could push this one to a place no Paul single has gone in a long while. I hope momentum and interest in the song/video keeps building. Would just love to see Appreciate catch on and really start climbing the charts. I believe the spark is really there with this one!

I'm jealous you've heard it on a Top 40 station! parlance

You may have a long wait. The video has yet to hit 300,000 views on YouTube, which is essentially nothing for a major pop act. By comparison, Katy Perry's "Roar" is just shy of half a billion views.

But it's a real robot all the time, right? with these lights in the background he sometimes looks like 3D animation...
-
I thought he needs the men dressed in black to operate him.

I remember last fall, feeling great when the "New" YouTube post had passed the 1 million mark...then I saw the kind of numbers that Nicky Minaj and all those other idiots were pulling. Considering McCartney's huge-selling tours, his comparatively dismal YouTube views defy logic.

Paul looks so thin next to the robot!

And after being so sick, he's probably even thinner now!
