Follow-up: The world's first music-video recorded all in mid-air - Link inside

[Frank N. O.]

I remember a conversation either in the forum or in the chat that went over in the topic of which band made the first musicvideo where they were actually recorded in a sky-dive. It was fixed it was the danish band Laid Back but the site didn't play the video at the time but I just tried it again and their new site can play it so maybe you'd like to see it too. Of course it's in low quality but for the sake of the feat I think it's very interesting. It looks like they jump from a classic Dakota, aka DC-3 and may I say the photographer's have done an amazing job, as have the choreographers! :cool: The band-members not only mimic but are also dressed out to fit the lyrics and have props and all in all it's a fantastic concept and this is one video that imho really moves the music onto a higher level unlike some videos that really doesn't do anything to the music as such. Btw, in the end, not who made it! That really came as a surprise to me!

Double-click on Videos, then Bakerman.

Note: Some said that Prince borrowed a fair bit of the music from Laid Back's White Horse for one of his own classics. I can't remember them both completely, nor do I know if he had/needed permission so I'm not accusing either way, just mentioning it.

Wow! A flash from the past. I remember that video playing a lot on MTV some 10-15 years ago. Thank you.
