MOST INADVERTENTLY FUNNY VIDEO EVER OF THE DAY: PICTURE, “NOW IT’S TOO LATE”

Thursday, April 8th, 2010 at 12:00pm by

I don’t know Picture, and after seeing this video I’m fairly confident that I don’t need to know Picture. Still, this clip made me giggle quite a bit. Here’s why:

  1. The imagery is incredibly cheesy. You can’t have a shot of a heartbroken dude walking along on the beach in 2010. Sorry. It’s just not allowed. Also, that shot at the 49 second mark of the singer super-imposed into the bed of the heartbroken guy is, y’know, insanely creepy. Or least the idea behind it is creepy; the actual effect is too poor to be anything but hilarious.
  2. Why is the singer singing in the middle of a bar and/or empty room?
  3. I’ve never seen a singer look so incredibly not into his own song. Especially in a promotional video meant to sell the band.
  4. The band is incredibly over-lit. No one on set had a light meter?
  5. It’s hard to believe that this is a new song. Apparently Picture were an 80s band. SHOCKER.

    Video is crappy. But the song and the lead guitarist are pretty good.

    i wish i had the eloquence to explain why i feel this is the dumbest thing ever.

  • evilfatguy

    I like the obviously autotuned vocals and the super shitty D.I. acoustic sound. Couldn’t they have rented a microphone?
    Also the extremely dated sound is laughable.
    Buuuut this shitrock has come back in a huge way, so don’t be surprised when your local scene kids are helping this band get big.

    The singer looks like someone put Robert Plant and the dude from The Wrestler in a blender.
