VI


The same summer down here that I spent most of my time shoplifting, we spent the rest of the summer watching a summer's full of new videos on MTV. The videos for the Prodigy's songs "Breathe" and "Firestarter" were in heavy rotation after their first single, "Smack My Bitch Up" was relegated to late night spins because of the content. It took us awhile to actually catch that one, which depicts a pretty heavy night for what seems like a dude but turns out to be a 10. The spice girls had some video that haunted us for days. Blur's "Song 2" was our jam. The shit that really blew our minds though was the video for Radiohead's "Paranoid Android". The video was a swedish cartoon called Robin, with limbs being chopped off and dudes kissing. We must have watched it 25-30 times and it never got old.
