    Song's good,video doesn't offer much

    While there's a part of me that understands why this shamelessly low rating for the music video of "Both Ends Burning" as it does not bring anything new or so groundbreaking about the media format, I'd like to assume that at least one must give credit to the song. In the words of admirer Johnny Marr (The Smiths, Electronic) Roxy Music had delivered one of the greatest pop songs of all time, before the music genre inception.

    Outside of the man's views, there's nothing wrong about the clip; it's a generic band performance on stage, they're all in the dark with lights hitting them from time to time, but frontman Bryan Ferry and his suited beautiful female backvocalists appear in distinctive manners. The only extravagance during the act comes when the director/editor decided to throw an X-Ray effect in the images, turning the brief moment into a psychedelic experience. Song is awesome, but it gets a little cut in the video. Still worthy of view after nearly 50 years of its existence. 6/10.
