Give an album song a video...


Recommended Posts

I'm sure many of you know that on Code Red, track 1, is "Somethin' Like Dis" and it woulda been a great party hit. I was thinking, if you could pick any non-single, non-hit JJFP song, what would it be and what would the video be like?

Mine is Somethin Like Dis. The video would be brought back to the streets of Philly (Like where "Freakin' It" was taped) and have like a block party in the spring or fall with crowds of people lined up along the sidewalks then have JJFP performing in the streets with Jeff tearing up the wheels of steel and FP just goin all over the place. Have the people goin "dee dee dee de de dee" while JJFP just rockin' it. JJFP sporting typical Code Red attire. Starter gear basically. I think that would be a hot video. Better than "I Wanna Rock".

So what about you? How would your video be like?

Hmm. I never saw all the JJFP videos. Mostly Will's solo stuff. I was too young 2 catch them other videos. Only ones I've seen of JJFP was Summertime and Parents Just Don't Understand.

But I'd have 2 say. Nightmare On My Street. I would have loved to seen that aired. I think "Twinkle Twinkle" would be a cool video. The pictures would follow right along wit the lyrics. That and "Ring My Bell".

Oh man...I'd pick "The Rain", hands down. What a video that would be. It could start with Will waking up from bed, looking out an apartment building window onto the streets...and it's raining...he sees the kids playing...etc...then put a few flashbacks when he mentions Summertime and Boom...almost every line in that song could be put onto video. I can see it so clearly. That would be my choice, 4 sure.
