I love TTWIG, always have. Even Rhino elevates the song, and Rick's tone is right on point. Rossi's solos are perfect, it's really well done. In the video I also really like the blonde in the business suit who is dancing suggestively against Rick.
The rest of this is crap.

Rather keen on Sea Cruise. OK, it's a bit of a cheesy cover but I like it. Especially the ' ooh, eeh, babies'. So there Not mad on that shopping centre video, though, I must admit. Reminds me of some Saturday night nonsense on ITV.

Bentall centre Kingston. I was rather narked that I didn’t really make the final cut. Although I am in it for a very short amount of time towards the end.
I hung around to see how they shot it (I work in media now so was interested at the time) without trying to look like a sad lurker.
Rhino was pleasant. He tripped into me on one take when we were all walking through as though they weren’t there and apologised!
Rick took the piss out of my accent. But was a decent bloke.
Rossi was a bit uppity and not so friendly to me. But seemed ok with some others. An unpredictable man. A little kid fell over a cable at one point and he was straight over to see if he was ok. But I’ve never found him particularly warm.
The business suit girl worked in the centre as a manager of one of the shops I think.
It was all directed by an American guy.

Ha so if you pause it at 2.40,top left in a green jacket is me. 22 years ago. Jeez.
One other abiding memory is that I got to stand shoulder to shoulder with Rick and play air guitar.

Just another nail in the coffin.
Mediocre, bland. They just look so stupid. Yeah, its just a bit of fun, I get it, but it all seems all so out of place and, for me, highlights everything I hated about what became of Quo. Mind you, by this time that coffin had long since been buried.
On the plus side they did find themselves again a little while later with HT and if this crap had to come in order to get some good I guess we can call it the 'necessary evil'.

Wonder what the sea cruise haters think of this? Frame always seemed to make so many cover versions sound twee.
