Nice. Thanks, Rob.
Love is a dangerous drug.

There’s a quality to his movements that made me unsure, for much of the video, whether he had recorded the pantomime in reverse.

Odd. I don’t get the effect that he’s singing, I think because he doesn’t look like he’s working at hitting the high notes.
If that makes any sense at all

You have to imagine that you’re chained to a radiator to get the full effect.

Not sure what I’m supposed to be “getting” here. Knew it was the Eurythmics song from the title; it’s a song I’ve listened to dozens of times.

Other than the music, the expressive mime/lip sync, and the supposed gender-bending subtext, is there something else I’m missing here?

(Definitely puzzled by the “chained to a radiator” thing. Was this song in Black Snake Moan, or am I fricken clueless?)

Someone spends way too much time in front of the mirror.
