Journey - Separate Ways (Worlds Apart)


1.) Check out the clothes. Fancy.
2.) Check out the chick. 80s dream girl.
3.) Check out those beautiful jump cuts.
4.) This video makes me laugh hysterically during the choruses. During the first chorus, when they're aggressively singing the chorus at the camera, I lose it. I lose it even more during the second chorus when two of the band members pop up on either side of the 80s dream babe lip syncing. Beautiful.
5.) The instrumental break is a thing of beauty, to be sure. Their instruments are highlighted, the bassist is playing a strange travel bass, and then it goes all nuts, jump cut and slow motion-y.
6.) The keyboard player is playing his keyboard while it is affixed to the wall of the warehouse.
7.) I almost forgot - playing invisible instruments...fantastic.

Also, important question: In the 80s, did people actually find Steve Perry attractive?!
