What a thoughtful reply. :)
"These days, many rich kids are thin, vacuous and miserable, so, an image of distracted, affluent ennui becomes fashionable."
Well, while I don't disagree exactly, then are you suggesting that "the wealthy" were once truely happier than they are now?
I don't think so. Didn't Mother Theresa say, "depression the rich man's disease"?

My hypothesis is that whatever holds connotations of richness becomes fashionable. Back in the 18th century, only the rich were fat, so plump women were held as being desirable. These days, many rich kids are thin, vacuous and miserable, so, an image of distracted, affluent ennui becomes fashionable.
The misery is understandable. You have to have self-respect to be happy, and most rich kids have none because they aren't pushed by life to achieve things under their own steam.

I get a huge Magritte vibe from this video. Nonetheless, love it!

I remember when this vid came out. It's so fun and how I, as a naive 12 yo at the time was introduced to Squeeze. Loved them!

I loved this song when it played on the radio and I miss Squeeze and their great songs.

Best tune of 1987!

Ade directed this... I love anything that Ade does. Great concept... although it has a little bit of a Peter Gabriel feel to me. I could be wrong though... fell free to correct me. I've been really wrong before. Anyway not a bad vid.
