Bend To My Will Video
12th July, 2013
Here’s the new video for Bend To My Will. I was asked to star but declined for two reasons: I can’t act and I can hardly swim. I nearly drowned shooting the Great War sleeve and that was in the bath. I’m basically a coward and a creep and was quite content to have the poor actor here flounder on my behalf for what amounted to bus fare and half a cheese sandwich. I am grateful for his undying commitment to his, wait for it, craft. That’s today’s pun dispensed with. Feast your eyes on this odyssey of oafishness. All is lost!

You can now preview the album on 7 digital.com!!!!!!!
Right! Cheers John!
What the fucks going on? You paid someone to ‘Direct’ and ‘Act’ in this video??? Stick to your own mug next time! The acoustic ‘Little Stars’ at Mrs Craigs on you tube is much better. The emotion you show is much better than any ‘actor’ can generate. And it doesnt detract or distract from you lyrics!
You see, the problem was the piano wouldn’t float….
Looks like what the outcome of Thomas Dolby’s “17 Hills” song off his album A Map of the Floating City would have been. Never had Justin as a secret Thomas Morgan Robertson fan.
I’ll help you Justin!
Not bloody likely.
How’s the contemplating of the potato crisp going Justin?
“Bend To My Will” is a good song, with the steel guitar adding a nice touch. Unfortunately videos have become too important in order to gain ‘air play’ for all musicians. But this video seems innocuous, relatively inexpensive, environmentally sustainable, and occasionally thematically supportive of the song. (Hopefully not every comment need be satirical or self-deprecating.)
Well done Les. He answered your comment on his complaints page. I was going to say something along those lines, I was going to warn him not to bend over in front of Elton because he might think Justin is a very attractive man like I do. Justin also answered my complaint/question again. How was the gig on Friday? What I’ve seen of it on Youtube it looked great and so did he.
I think it was a wise choice for you not to be in the video Justin. I don’t know why but the Jaws theme came into my head. I love the line ‘I feel my body going south’, my body’s already there! Gravity can be a bitch.
That’s a really brilliant idea for the song! Love it! Congratulations to whoever came up with that idea!
Agreed Peter! All hail that triumphal sail!
