But the making of DVD contains neither the single nor the video of the single, so it would have been ineligible anyway. :?

I thought that aswell but didn't AntiProduct hit the Guinness Book of Records with a massive single? 16 tracks or something similar?

Besides, it would have just been a video and making of - that's more or less commonplace with DVD singles.

Anyway, complaining now isn't going to change it I guess! :P

I always got the feeling from the really bad edit at the end of the DVD that it should have had the actual video on it but someone ballsed up somewhere. The first time I watched it I thought I had a duff copy but then my mate checked his and it was the same. Shame really.

Now if they could just sort out the legal wrangling and get all the videos onto a spanking new DVD remixed in 5.1 I could die a happy man!

i don't think antiproduct have that record, i seem to remember a kerrang review of a single by a band called "jetplane landing" who cleared out all their demos and song ideas and basically made a single with about 30 b-sides on it.

I sent the link over to my 14 year old Niece (who is not a fan of rock music) for her opinion. She said the vid was cool and she enjoyed it. She did however say that the "guy with the glasses looked a bit geeky"....alas, I think that guy is our very own my3dtvtan? All I can say is, how cool to be in a Wildhearts vid from now until eternity. My only claim to fame is an email from Ginger enquiring if my name was real! She also said that most of the other boys n girls looked gothy and / or emo (whatever that is). So overall, I'd say the song and vid got a thumbs up from a non-fan.....and Uncle Keith didn't even bribe her with a noo cell phone or anything like that. Encouraging!!!

Political songs mentioning Iraq, Afghanistan, terrorists and the like may be the flavour du jour given Ian Brown's new single that references all of the same issues. Could be ideal timing.

Seeing as I've mentioned one twat, I may as well mention another: Zane Lowe. If he could be persuaded to play this single on his Radio 1 show then that'd be a massive chunk of publicity seeing as this is the show that the "new flesh" listen to. We should bombard him with requests ( zane.lowe@bbc.co.uk ) and get the band to supply Radio 1 with the track.

Yea yea, so what if I do look worried? Miming along to a song youve never herd before in a massive empty room with about thirty people stareing at you in silence including a load of kids who seemed to hate me because the director picked me to go up first over them AND only the ENTIRE bloody WiLDHEARTS!!!! Youd be slightly worried if you where 16 and in that situation too, belive me....... :oops:
That said, it was the the highlight of my life and how many other people can say they where picked to be in a WiLDHEARTS vid? :wink: Id go through all the awkward geeky worrying again tomorrow if I could! 8)

Sticks and stones may break my bones.......

Good on you dude! I didn't think you looked geeky or worried, just someone having an amazing time, as well you shoudl have been. I bet there is not one person on this board who isn't as envious as hell. I know I am.
