I think that I could groove to this song all day long. It always puts a smile on my face. It's like nothing else in the entire world. I love the way two people sing it... brilliant. And the video fits the song perfectly. At the end of it, it seems like Robert is going to kiss his reflection. Does anyone else get that impression?

i posted this at the forum from he.ll. being lazy and reposting here here's my take on the the video. at the beginning, robert's in a motel room watching tv when a newsbroadcast breaks in about the 12th victim in a string of horrific motel slayings....(so somebody's about to become the 13th...yes?) meanwhile, he notices the bride in the bathroom and looks like he can't remember where he is or who she is. so the video alternates between the bedroom and his memory of playing in the club and meeting the girl etc etc etc. then there's a knock at the door and another girl storms in the room and there's the big cat fight between them. during the cat fight, the video alternates between the scene in the room and his recollection of where the other girl came from. anyway, at the end he looks in the mirror and his face is looking all goulish... so i take it to mean either he just got saved from being killed by the bride or he was going to kill her any other ideas?

I think that about sums it up. At least that's what I got from it too.

Yeah. I love how the video is shown out of order. Again, back to that whole mystery thing...

I love to belt out the lyrics, especially when I'm in the car. People like at me like I'm strange...but then again...I am.

The bride was indeed a transvestite.

HA! ;D I just found it on yahoo launch- had only seen a piece of it once, way back when, and at the time I just thought it was a pretty literal interpretation of the lyrics (well, I still think it is).
But I missed the whole murder thing the first time around, so leo's description confused me!! (not hard to do.)

Well, a lot of it just is the lyrics, I think. Some of it's just twisted in a different way...
Does anyone know who the bride is? I read somewhere once, but that was before I saw the video and so I didn't really understand (and didn't remember it). I can't find the place where I found it, either. I just remember it saying something about "someone" looking good in a blonde wig....
