I bet nobody was paying attention neither to the singer, nor to the song. I was just praying the cars will come out of it all intact... in my mind's eyes I saw a cloud of smoke back there....

I love The Weeknd’s voice but alas, yet another stupid, pointless video!   The 113 is identical to mine color wise!  The entire production reminds me of television commercial DB ran in the US when 113s were new.  I wish I could find that old commercial on YouTube but to date, I can’t.

Kind of a riff on the MBUSA Santa Claus commercials with all the red and white cars.  Too bad all the grille stars were expunged, as well as the logo in the center of the grille of the Mercury.  The drone shot at the end was kind of cool . . .

Maybe there’s a hidden message in there, about money not being able to buy everything after all: could it be the producer wasn’t able to procure the required number of R107s and had to draft a Pagoda into the lineup? The odd little duck…  ;)

Yes, the question is WHY?  As observed by Irrepond " yet another stupid, pointless video".  Of course it has been said that there is no accounting for taste, but if the world finds this video entertaining I am most certianly and happily out of step.
