the comuvnics: Sleep

One Song - two videos:

First version: The "Band video "
The frame story with band sequences.

Second version: The "Frame story "
The whole frame story without any band sequences.
- ... as shown on "onyx.tv" ... ;-)

The story:

An unusual music video for unusual song lyrics.

The pictures in nostalgic brown-and-yellow are showing three different stories. The band playing live on stage, movie scenes which show a suicide collage and these movie scenes projected on a balloon. Holly - the lead singer of the comuvnics - is also the main actor of the movie scenes. The video is like the rhythm of the song - sometimes pensive - desperate - sometimes it rocks. All three levels are mixed in the pictures and at the end the balloon bursts and gives a free view to ... a happy-end? ...

A video which reached the rotation of the TV-music-channel "onyx".
