Thumbs down What do you think of "This Is The Day" clip?

I find it very disappointing.

For those reading Italian, or just wishing to see another piece of memorabilia, although in small size, please visit
http://steg-speakerscorner.blogspot.com/
and check my today post on this subject.

Cheers

Steg

I love it. Made me cry the first time I saw it. This band has really shaped my life since my early teens, so seeing all of the clips together with that song makes it pretty emotional

I didn't care for them dragging Richey into it. He didn't deserve that.

I'd have preferred a video that followed that girl from the sleeve around for three and a half minutes while she looked bored and wished she could get home and listen to Coldplay and Rihanna.
