Greg Johnson “It’s Been So Long”
The video centres on a clown. We meet him alone at his house, before he sets off into the city. The futuristic looking Britomart station has been used a lot in music videos, so it’s really refreshing to see the clown take a train to Britomart and walk through it as a commuter, not as … Continue reading Greg Johnson “It’s Been So Long”

The video opens with an introduction of the band – it is, after all, the Greg Johnson … Continue reading Greg Johnson Set “Talk in this Town”
Greg Johnson Set “Sun Beat Down”
The more Greg Johnson videos I see, the more appreciation I have for his video oeuvre. There are are some rippers in there and “Sun Beat Down” is one of them. Directed by Mark Tierney and Paul Casserly, it has a slick, ’90s western feel to it, probably influenced by the work of Robert Rodriguez. … Continue reading Greg Johnson Set “Sun Beat Down”
