"I don't believe in reincarnation because I refuse to believe...that I might come back and never listen to New Order again!". If you know this amazing music video of
theirs you understand what I just did back there with this initial sentence. The video for "Bizarre Love Triangle" is one of those crazy visual compositions from the 1980's
mixing a collage of colorful images (from cities to people to objects and effects and lights) that are all shown in a very hurried manner forming a puzzle that's hard to describe.
Many artists have travelled with such creations making fun and intereting artistic statements through their images that could match with their songs. This synth-rock is one of
their magnificent moments of all time and also a massive hit back in the day with countless versions available - the original extended is my favorite since the instrumental
section and the electronic vocals go on for like forever and it's awesome.
Along with the fast images, the band is also present in a quite brief manner and very obscure to see since the images give the appeareance of being scratched, and
there's the special acting moment that breaks the song apart that instills a higher meaning to the proposed song (if not that then it's just an amusing moment about a true
bizarre love triangle).
It's a fun spectacle of the senses both in imagery but also in sounds, it's impossible to dislike the track and the video. As for the initial statement, I know karma's a thing in many cultures and religions (the eternal recurrence) but I refuse to believe that I might miss or never hear about New Order because...you never know. 10/10.
