Bjork, 'Declare Independence' - Video of the Day

I think this might be Gondry's paint-piano idea:

Uhuhuhuhuh! Declare Independence!! Love Michel Gondry! Love Björk! Love Mark Bell!

This is more an art proposal/statement rather than a video itself. it's nice... very -Independent- from all other bjork videos that are charged with special effects and such. I can see a bit of "1984" video too.

Well, I thought the song was kind of boring... It does have some high points.. but just loops and loops... maybe I was in the mood for something more melodic..

About the video.. well.. I wouldn't say disappointing.. but.. I don't know.. I kind of missed a surprise factor..

Still, love to see such a powerful woman and voice...

besides the fact that Bjork looks amazing in the video and great in a jumpsuite I dont really like the video that much; mostly for the reasons already stated... I was thinking the same thing while I watched it before i read the comments ...

the paint idea is cool.. alot of ideas in the video are cool but doesnt' come anything close to expressing the power of the song or even bjork doing it live ...

anyways I can't say i'm disapointed, anything with bjork in it is bonus at this point.

Love & Respect!

the idea is cool... lightning is a bit poor if you ask me... looks like it's shot at my local hardware store with my moms video camera...

maybe another story line... mixed up with this one... would have bring more variation to the video...

but... in the end.... it's all about the music... and that's great, with or without a video... ;-)

internet killed the videostar.

takk Björk!

i totally agree with vertico and adapt or die.

first time i heard that song i was thinking of pluto. i love both songs. and yes, it could have been a great video, but it doesn't work for me. this machine is the opposite of independence. and all the guys are dressed and behave like soldiers.
maybe another ending would have made it better. i'm very dissapointed
but still, bjork is amazing. end of story

Takk Björk.
i think that this is a Great video, why stupid people say: ohhh the machine and the... and things like these? the machine string is Volta, colors are VOLTA and Volta is energy, volta is voltage, votla is björk's dreams and Volta is today's world destroyed by humans only, colors say to you: be free, declare independence, machine don´t holding humans. Guitar, Colors and music run through human's minds by strings in they're heads and björk's voice scream DECLARE INDEPENDENCE, you aren't attached to nothing that you created, you are naturally free, you are yourself,Volta run through your head screaming raise your flag humans, raise your volta flag.

Soooooo disappointed...
Disappointed by Michel Gondry who directed an uncreative video that withdraws all the sense and the energy of the song.
Disappointed by Bjork who didn't bother cut a more TV-friendly version of this magnificent song.
Bjork has to remember that her latest single, "Innocence", didn't chart at all, and "Declare Independence" could be such a hit, but with this kind of work, it's not going to be one.

No me gusto, es muy plano, falta creatividad , la canción es muy buena para un video tan mediocre....
