Oh, good catch with "Every Breath You Take"!

I know the song well but never saw the video until tonight.
It's official - VEGANGELICA lives under a rock


I noticed smoking by Lana Del Rey and at least one other person in this. I hope cigarette product placement is theoretical only.

I didn't bother watching the "Every Breath You Take" music video until now...because I heard the song preformed live in the '80s.

Devo - "Whip It" (1981)
Smoking is featured briefly, along with beer-drinking fake cowboys and cowgirls.

Oh yes, and then there's the video plot of whipping off a woman's clothes, which is apparently based on the true tale of a man who whipped off his wife's (velcro-attached) clothes for the entertainment of visitors to his dude ranch, according to Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whip_It_(Devo_song.

Interesting. Somehow I never read that before, despite reading about Devo on Wiki a while ago. I heard that the Asian woman in the video truly is cross-eyed (or was - nobody should have to walk around like that).

Anyway, continuining on my quest, my gut feeling about Kid Rock was right.

Kid Rock - Cowboy (Enhanced Video) - YouTube

If I liked his music and had more time, I could probably find other videos with him smoking.

And a great song that I plan to watch via On Demand soon...

Alice In Chains - Down In A Hole - YouTube

There's also smoking (of what seems a strangely-shaped cigarette) in this forgotten, amusingly sleazy video for a great sleazy song...

Great White - Mista Bone - YouTube

Smoking finds from recent years - "Ass Like That," by Enimem (hilarious song and video) and "Find Your Love," by Drake.

Unusual because it shows a black woman smoking.

Common - Testify - YouTube

OT: If someone could explain the plot to me, muchos gracias.

It took me a while to realize that the cheeky, brazen puppet dog has a cigar in its mouth. (I was distracted by the whole scenario.) At least the puppet dog wasn't lighting up. The puppet voyeurs are smoking near the end, though.

So has "ass" sometimes really been censored from Eminem's "Ass Like That" song on the radio? That's amusing, because my child tells me even a few kindergarten kids at his elementary school know "f***" ...and most elementary school kids know "ass." So I'm wondering whom censoring is supposed to protect.

I didn't know Eminem was such a comedian. My favorite line: "I'm not your wife!"

I'd say, yes, a hookah counts. (And also: Whoa! I had no idea the video for the song looked like that!)

unrelated, but here's a TV commercial for KOOL's, and maybe it will help you if you're using multiple references to make a documentary on the subject of smoking and subliminal/video advertising.
