Now I know why Tracey Ullman was in Paul's video--he was in hers in 1983!
Yep, he has that cute cameo at the end!
I was always surprised that he did that one. Such a nice guy!
Yeah i remember that at the time (i'm old!!) - he agreed to do it as a favour after she was filming for Give My Regards To Broadstreet before (though released after!), she played Sandra, and in the flim has the same curtains as my mum heheheh (fascinating eh, but we wound mum up about it for ages)
Yes, that was a great video. I remember being so shocked at the time.

His faux driving distracted me. I couldn't help but think that if it were for real, they'd be off in a ditch somewhere.

Thanks for putting that link in I always liked that video and the song.

I just remember laughing so hard at the end of that video because she put in visual a common fantasy for us all...and Paul complied with her. (at first, I wondered if it was just a look alike but quickly learned it really was Paul)

Paul's video for Queenie Eye just can't compete with Justin Timberlake's for TKO: http://www.etonline.com/dailyfirst/140080_Justin_Timberlake_TKO_Video/index.html

I disagree a little bit. Local groups ftom NC like Avett Brothers played little clubs in Charlotte (I live in Charlotte) and eventually got discovered and are doing pretty well without big time promotion. I will try and check out that movie,sounds interesting.quote Did you mean Evenly Brothers? I never heard of Avett Brothers. I think you will the movie Looking for Sugarman. I watched it couple times. He was a musician who made a record in motown and it didn't sell because of lack of promotion and I think because the guy was mexican and didn't fit the profile of 60's musician. Someone found it who lived in S Africa where there was censorship so they had a underground music scene there. This album sold more copies there than Beatle, Door, Stone all of them. He was bigger than any of them. Than 40 years later thinking this guy was dead they found out he wasn't he was working as a labor and never saw a dime of money off the record which sold million of albums or knew about his success so they brought him to SA to do concerts. There he sold out arena's and it was as large as any PM concert and just as many screaming fans. Last I read he was touring all over to sold out concerts . Music critics said he words were better the Dylan's and high praise for his music. Again when I got done watching the documentary his songs stuck in my brain and you wanted to find the album and buy it. Isn't that really the point of good music. Not because it being rammed down your throat by media blitz. Also it was music that even 40 years later was good. I know this isn't the point but I think the business of music and ruined music. Anyone today can be a musician. They got auto tune, they got machine that reproduce music sounds. There no real talent in the music today and it shows. The music industry is not doing well. Yes the movie was supposedly awful, did not see it but trust the reviews. Cmon, every good actor alive has made clunkers. You don't think legendary actor Dustin Hoffman regrets being in "Ishtar" for example. Personally, I don't go to a movie just for one actor, I go for the overall movie. IMO - Mr. Depp being in a Pail McCartney video is not really going to take attention away from being in a bad movie. No I don't believe that and that wasn't my main point. I think models are being pushed off magazine covers for actress that are between projects and want money. I think actors are being pushed off Magazine covers for reality TV stars/ Look at all these movie magazines this last month. It all the Kardashians or some other reality TV personality. So getting exposure if you're not in a scandal of some kind, is hard. Look how Johnny D said he retiring from the movies.. that was desperation because his movie bombed. Also where is Dustin Hoffman after that movie bombed. Working a lot cheaper. Unless they got there own money exposed making their next film. "BACK THAN IT WAS THE BEST GOT ON THE COVER TODAY IT WHO PAYS THE BEST...OOPS DID i SAY THAT? Back then, magazines did not have to fight the internet for music news so it was a different time. Now due to magazines and newspapers struggling to get readers, they may feel it is necessary to do this and if it helps their business I don't have a problem with it.
I don't understand your come back? You don't have a problem that they are not putting music people on the cover of music magazines or that they are only putting rehashed rocker from the 60's because none of this generation have music stars big enough to drag in readers. That kind of what my point was. To be on Rolling Stone today is not like it was in the early days when you music got you there. I believe these actor did this for internet exposure and to be attached to Paul's huge publicity machine that he is. He's a icon to a lot of the film people who would love to meet Paul. I am sure their phone rang from people who can hire them asking them what Paul like, Being associated with the Beatles from the early days helped people so its no different now. Again it all hype and I watched the video and couldn't remember the tune so for me it didn't work but for you and other it helped you like the song better so it worked.

"Did you mean Evenly Brothers? I never heard of Avett Brothers. " The Avett Brothers are a critically acclaimed American band from Concord, North Carolina. The band is made up of two brothers?Scott Avett (banjo) and Seth Avett (guitar)?as well as Bob Crawford (double bass). Joe Kwon (cello), and Mike Marsh (drums) are touring members of the band, with Kwon featured on recordings from 2007's Emotionalism and later. Following on from Seth and Scott's former rock band Nemo, the Avett Brothers combine bluegrass, country, punk, pop melodies, folk, rock and roll, honky tonk, and ragtime to produce a sound described by the San Francisco Chronicle as having the "heavy sadness of Townes Van Zandt, the light pop concision of Buddy Holly, the tuneful jangle of the Beatles, the raw energy of the Ramones. " I don't understand your come back? You don't have a problem that they are not putting music people on the cover of music magazines or that they are only putting rehashed rocker from the 60's because none of this generation have music stars big enough to drag in readers." RS is not just a music magazine and has had politiians, actors and even the Boston Marathon bomber on it's cover.
