One of the most brilliant songs written along with one of the ridiculous video to accompany it.
I wouldn't have taken it out of the long forgotten place it belongs to

My favourite bit is when the chains are thrown down, lols.

I wonder if this is a genuine 4k scan (unlikley) or if they are just doing 4k computer upgrades like Alberto does.

Tunnel Of Love has the same scenery :)
I know the way I can see by the moonlight
Clear as the day
Now come on woman, come follow me home

Looks like a genuine 4K to me though, look at that sparkling crispness, you can't possibly make an upscale of that level of quality. Watching it on a 4K display and it looks amazing.

I actually love these upgraded videos because you can see so many details that you'll never bother to see in these ridiculous 240p originals.

But if we'd have an honest look, few music videos actually make sense, it's just an excuse to put the music on the television screen, so you can show practically anything that you want.

Like in "Last Christmas", which was also upgraded to 4K, you have a trillion ways the video could go, so they chose the simplest approach:



One of my all-time favorite music videos and one of the best music videos of all time is "Star Guitar" by The Chemical Brothers which is just a rendered view out of a train (but what a masterpiece for 2002):
