The new video created for Was It All Worth It is gonna be released in just about 40 hours from now:
From the video description:
"Career-Spanning New Video for ‘Was It All Worth It’ takes us on a dazzling ride through Queen’s extraordinary journey to The Miracle. You might need to be a celebrity mastermind on the subject of Queen to spot all the career landmarks squeezed into this newly created video for Queen’s The Miracle album track Was It All Worth It which dazzlingly captures the themes of the track through an inspired assemblage of archive footage, still photos and cutting-edge animation – and challenges hardcore fans to spot every last reference from a treasure-trove of Queen career milestones."
Hopefully some unseen footage/photos will be used? I wonder what the so-called cutting-edge animation will be... Sounds like this might be a nice one! Although I think some of us might've already seen it at the convention

Sadly QPL is really good at crushing optimism lol, although indeed it is most likely we get nothing new, there have been a few exceptions over the years so the chances are not 0 |

Oh dear. I’m glad they did something. But feel it will date so quickly. Needs a bit of ‘class’ a bit of something. This unfortunately looks like a very good student project. Why doesn’t DoRo take care of these things any more? Is it just because that partnership ended?

Late 90's flash animation.

It's both funny and annoying that such a large band would present this video as the official music video for a song about the formation of the band. It definitely had to be better.

Although I guess the premise of the video isn't that bad, the execution just sucks |

Guys, it's a bit of freebie ephemera to stick out on the day of the release of something. Don't get confused between this and something like It's A Hard Life which was designed and shot to sell the band on telly. Think of it as a little 6 minute thing someone can stick on in their lunchbreak, switch their brain off and look at some nice pictures while eating their crisps. 16 million people who follow the Queen channel would get a notification, and the huge proportion of them will be hearing this song for the first time. A bit of eye candy rather than looking at the song title on screen. Who knows, maybe The Miracle will get a few sales off it.

Awful. I don't think Queen should be putting out this low quality for how massive they are. Seems massively budgeted and cheap.

Were there some Hammersmith 1979 alternate angles (amp toppling) or was that from somewhere else?

It is a pretty bad video, really cheap looking. Compare this to the Beatles I'm Only Sleeping video that was just released. Same can be said of the book that comes with the Miracle box. It's at least better than the NOTW book, but void of much new insight and no details on the session tracks. The Revolver box naturally has comprehensive, scholarly write-ups and detailed notes on all the tracks.

They should've hired the studio that made the All Dead, All Dead video to make this one

NOTW is in the robot's other hand and WORKS is on the wall in the Break Free clip NOTE: there was already a thread for this video, please try and avoid creating dupl threads and post ONLY in the correct sub-board. your post has been relocated |
