Title: In the year 2525
Post by: jcassity on November 30, 2008, 01:36:45 AM
what an awsome music video, wonder why I never saw this on MTV? Perhaps the band didnt play up to par for our day and time but its an understatement to how applicable the words are of this day.

yeah, i was killing time this weekend hunting down old songs.  I tried to download the zegar and evans song but the quality went to .
I find it creepy that the one line where they call out a year in time wayyyy out in the future allows you to pick your child and the shag.  its creepy because thats been possible for a decade or more now.  Also the reference to pills taken to control your emotions or thoughts.

I loved this song when i was a child, now i realize it was a lame song in every sense of the word. The lyrics horrible the instrumentation horrible, there was much better music happening in that period that deserves the title of oldies way before this song does.


The reason you never saw this on MTV is because this is a splice together of a shiznit ton of movies, Matrix Bicentennial man and a few others this is not an official music video. Also this song was made years ago when they did not have the technology to make CGI look that decent.

It's been a few years since I've heard that.
It was a great song for it's time.

It's one of those songs you remember as a kid
I also remember "Hey jude" in that same way
