Take Over the World Video

[Fergal]

Alright, my sister said she saw the vid for TOTW on NMETV today, I were at work so missed it, apparantly involves Liam Fray on a hotel bed and a couple running through a forest. Is this up anywhere or awt?

Best I could find was this;

‘Take Over The World’ released on 19th April on A&M Records strikes a chord almost immediately with Liam Fray’s emotive vocal underpinned with piano and a naggingly seductive musical undertone that soars majestically before unfurling into an emphatic chorus that will undoubtedly be a favourite come the end of the band’s upcoming live dates. The single is released on 2 x 7” singles, CD and download with new tracks available across the formats.

Ha! Exactly what I said ;D I can't really complain though, I love Twilight and The Courteeners. Plus I really want that coat that the girl wears in the vid,

I've yet to see the video, but if it's Twilighty, might strike a chord with Robert Pattinson groupies ha

I saw this on NME TV yesterday. Similar to YODID video with liam sitting by himself then cutting to the guy and girl running through the forest. That tune has grown on me big time since i heard it live. Itll be interesting to see how well it does when its released.

Hmmm i haven't saw the video yet but id prefer the whole band rather than just liam as per usual tbh

[dontask]

just seen in on NME. think it wouldve been better without liam.

[Deleted]

think it's a pretty soppy video tbh. then again i dont think they should have released take over the world as a single

Another bobbins video featuring 1/4 of the band.

The band name really ought to have been amended to ''Liam Fray and The Courteeners'' by now in order to ensure a smooth transition towards the solo moniker...

[Sean]

seen this a couple of times now, alright i guess.

[teener]

Why does nobody think it should be a single? Its probably the most suited to the radio on the whole album it had single stamped all over it since I first put the album on. As for the video I actually think its one of their better ones, what more could you get from this sort of love song, the scenery is amazing and the hotel room bit is cool as.

[dontask]

i do think it should be a single - good times are calling next.

you hiss and groan and you constantly moan, but you don't ever go away, and that's because, all you need is liam fray.... x

Im with you.

As soon as I saw it I thought Twilight as well. I bloody hated that film and think this video is pretty soppy. Matches the album in some respects as the album is all about love etc.

If you are going to have a video like this I dont think there is any need for Liam to be in it. All or nothing. Have the band or dont. Being in the COurteeners must be a fairly easy life for the other boys. Help make the album, let Liam go away on his own and finish it, turn up for Live performances, dont do any press or videos.
