Okay, somebody, somewhere took a whole bunch of drugs and slapped this puppy together. That can be the only explanation, and it forces me to do the time-stamp thing and not tell an actual story. Here we go…
0:02 First indication that we’re on a head trip, with shimmery campfire images of the band members waiting for the S’mores to be done.
0:11 Three women are stunned by what they have just seen.
0:15 First appearance of energetic belly dancer. Get used to her, that tramp is all over this thing.
0:21 Panoramic view of old buildings that might be important in some way, I just don’t know what that might be. Somebody’s doing laundry, that’s the only definite.
0:25 Bono gets artsy with an image of the moon. The moon does not seem pleased.
0:30 Brief confirmation of drug usage. I knew it.
0:35 Blurred people and a porta-potty. Something like that.
0:41 I think this is Bono, with an amazing amount of hair and a flamboyant shirt, but he won’t stay still long enough to make sure, insisting on doing an interpretative dance about bull-fighting and tequila.
0:49 Belly dancer girl, jackin’ those hips like there’s a prize.
1:00 Possibly The Edge and Larry, or maybe Yoko Ono and Troy Aikman, being stalked by someone with a kaleidoscope.
1:06 Trick photography allows Bono to clone himself, a life-long dream.
1:16 More interesting cinematography, with Bono relaxing on a rooftop and street-market patrons wondering why crazy foreigners have to take pictures of everything.
1:22 A possible prison break, details unclear.
1:28 Bono is very sad about the political climate in Wisconsin.
1:33 Larry really, really needs some sexual release.
1:43 Who invited the Republicans?
1:57 Interesting use of split-screen. We learn nothing, but it’s neat.
2:03 Belly dancer girl, reminding us that she’s the real star of this show and won’t stop dancing until we admit it.
2:13 Bono’s hair has apparently been nailed to a pretty floor.
2:27 Return to campfire. S’mores still not done.
2:40 The Edge experiences unfortunate loss of his head.
2:45 More split-screen crap, starting to get annoying.
2:52 Possible appearance by the Grim Reaper, wearing a non-regulation outfit.
3:05 Red-shirted Bono, who has been doing that odd dance the whole time, ups the ante by unbuttoning said shirt to a provocative level. Unclear what he hopes to achieve by doing this.
3:07 Damn Republicans are multiplying.
3:16 Escapee breaks back into prison, not emotionally satisfied by outside world.
3:20 Earthquake or really drunk camera man? You decide.
3:30 Bono hits the most interpretive part of his interpretive dance, kicking it up a notch and channeling very angry spirits with severe issues. Whatever has possession of him is apparently very important, and we spend the rest of the video watching Bono transform into everything from a clumsy snake-handler to a deranged Aztec priestess to what might possibly be a suppository. Video ends. Head-scratching does not…
