Sparks - This Town Ain’t Big Enough For The Both Of Us
The video basically speaks for itself. After having listened to the song, I have to say I had not prepared myself for the experience the video had to offer.
Although shot on ‘74 on a disco program, it foreshadows so much 80’s pomp and obscurity.
And either the lead singer is the most gender neutral/confused lead lady ever - Annie Lennox, Patti Smith, eat your hearts out! - or there’s some manner of lip synch going on there that I don’t even really understand. The curious fashion choices of the group don’t really help clarify anything either. If they slicked and spiked their hair and wore a lot more eyeliner they could be just like any of the weird internet-grown gimmick bands of today.
Look for funny moustache face at a minute and 20, and at 40 seconds left to go. Also pay close attention to the extremely apathetic audience.
