Hi guys, today we’re gonna talk about the latest Red’s single, which is called Perfect Life. The songs talks about how medias and society are trying to manipulate our minds trying to propose “perfect” models that we should imitate.
What an original theme to debate for an alternative rock band!
The video tells us pretty much the same story. In the first half you can see a serie of poorly realized parodies of tv commercials with slogans like “beauty”, “celebrity” or “do not think for yourself” while in the second half they filled up the remaining time with studio shots representing the band playing (again, how original!).
If you’re interested in these themes and want to see a decent criticР’В ofР’В consumerism you should check out John Carpenter’s They Live, it’s a great movie made in 1988 (that should ring a bell about how old is this debate) but please don’t waste your time watching this clip, it’s really bad.
Bad.
