We made a music video.

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

On a budget of £20 and with tongues planted firmly in cheeks Legion have made a music video for the song "Premonition". You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll cringe. Enjoy.

Ouch!!!!! :lol:

The 20 quid was spent on 4 packs of Royals to provide the smoke (fog machines being beyond the budget).

This was filmed and edited by my girlfriend's housemate (To whom we are duly grateful). Sadly he decided, for reasons unknown, not to edit out the bit where I scratch my nose!

I didn't really feel I had the right to be too demanding on the editing front considering we weren't paying him!

It's hardly industry standard stuff, but it was good fun to make and I think it definitely came out well enough to put out into the public domain - especially as I hope it'll raise a few smiles.

I still hold it's much better than The m*****n's Stay With Me.

I enjoyed it too! Plus, I think it looks quite professional. Above, I was just joking - or trying to joke - sorry, Germans aren't exactly famous for being funny :oops:

I got the joke :)

You might have noticed I'm not one for taking things too seriously. Just seriously enough :wink:

Sadly, yes. It ran out of money. A black day for Leeds indeed.

Although reading between the lines, I think it's only been a matter of time...

Add some negative/backwards/slomo effects and it might even hold up favourably to Wake! :lol:

Pity bout the Subculture too. :(
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

I share the same idea as MC Blaast!

Good one Maisey and band, keep'em coming and enjoy the stardom!

Now get rid of the obviousness, ditch some of the humor (but not all, NEVER) and find your own stylee ;)

You will and can get far, even with 20 buchks it seems! :D

I already commented on the vid yesterday (as ShenXia), but yeah, this totally brightened my day.
