random VFT shot in music video

[phissionkorps]

I've been listening to a looooot of hair metal recently, and rediscovered the awesomeness of Mr. Big the other day. I was watching this video and theres a random VFT shot around 2:36.

PS: this version is about 3082405380x better than the Cat Stevens version.

Anyone else remember this coming out? I was like 5 but I remember it since I used to watch a lot of MtV back when it was actually good, and about music...not rap.

Not better... just different.

Man Mr. Big rocks the house. I find cat stevens realllllllly annoying for some reason. His voice is like...120% treble all the time.

Man Mr. Big rocks the house.

Why is he covering Cat Stevens then?

I saw the VFTs around 2min 28sec into the vid. Seemed like forever listening to that music to see the pics....

Why is he covering Cat Stevens then?

Probably because they heard it and thought "we could do better"

Well if that was their goal they failed. Unless you enjoy a song being sung poorly and a singer that sounds like he is going to start crying at any moment.

Thats the way I feel about Cat Stevens. Maybe you guys just aren't 80s enough for Mr. Big.

Maybe you guys just aren't 80s enough for Mr. Big.

And thats just fine with me.

I remember when it came out. Since I didn't have MTV I never saw the video.

Watch the video of "To be with you" The singer looks like a girl I once knew, if you don't look too close.

There is a VFT shot in a Nine Inch Nails video too.

Not really agreeing with your Mr. Big doing this song better than Cat Stevens at all, but it was a nice shot of a Praying Mantis. Also, Me First And The Gimme Gimmes does my personal favoUrite version of said song, so I suppose there is no accounting for taste.
