I don't believe I've ever watched this Official Music Video of TPAOY!! A few quid spent by the looks of it - cheerleaders, biplanes etc. But my question is, who was strapped to the top of the plane in the video? Any of the band members or stuntmen only? Surely their insurance wouldn't cover Rick and Francis, would they? Anyone know.

Rick and Matt are on the top of the plane

Seems more like Rhino (blue shirt), Andy (green shirt) and Rick, to me.

I had to go and check because I knew the band had discussed the music video somewhere. Rick says he was the first to go up, as no-one else wanted to do it. He also says that Francis doesn't like when a ship rocks, let alone standing on-top of a bi-plane

Well, given some of the crap he's put out over the years, I'm not sure he's all that fussy about when his music rocks either.

One of my all time fav QUO clips, if it was for the lads taken on those biplanes (Balls of Steel). & of course those lovely cheerleaders, what more can you ask for in a music clip.

Y'know what - it woulda been great if they'd done this video but for 4,500Times - hee, hee - poor Ol' Rick would've been up there all day!!

Revisiting this thread simply because... Francis was on-top of a plane, I just don't think the footage was used

Genuinely don't mind the song at all. I like it I just think the album is a bag of shit. This and GGUAG are brilliant. Rest of it is cack IMO I remember the big love in for Belavista Man among the fan base....I was 16 and remember feeling abnormal because I thought it was utter drivel. It sounds forced. Compare it to the solo in GGUAG...Francis is on fire and there are iffy notes here and there but, he was cooking! Proper feel to it. Ain't listened to it in a while but, I can whistle it and hear it in my head. Great solo! Then again, ISOTFC is one of my fave albums so, it's probably me who is off his head
