I must disagree with his disagreement. One of the reasons to watch a
video is to see an artists conception of the song. something like 
_Cloudbusting_ does just that. True, that some times a video does 
nothing to enhance a song (just as a movie may do nothing for the book 
it was taken from), but just take them for what they are. If the video 
is too distracting, just close your eyes and listen.

As for Guadal Canal Diary, I've become a fan of theirs since their 2X4 
album. Their new stuff is pretty good (with a unique viseo for _Always 
Saturday_), but I haven't gone back to some of their old stuff yet.
