Did you know Edit. Trivia Jackson was 35 years old at the time of this video. User reviews 5 Review. Top review. A fascinating dark story. A long and elaborated chain of details. Just a shame he lapses again into the lyrics-on-screen thing which drags the video down. And the choreography in this Paula Abdul scene is great and shows off a load of semi-naked dancers writhing over a scaffold to great advantage. Idol performs via the pop art on the walls, and there is perhaps no single image that more perfectly captures early 90s music videos than the stiletto heel landing in the designer fish tank.
This time Fincher overlays picture-in-picture to give an interestingly kaleidoscopic effect. The performance sections are pretty ace too. Fincher mostly picks up on its more political resonances though Oliver North on TV and delivers an elegiac lament for the Americana of old. But Madonna is very bad at smoking. How else can you describe the possibility of a 90 ft Keith Richards?
No wonder it heralded his arrival in such a big way. A massive video for a massive hit, it manages to be both timeless, in the the way incredibly beautiful people are timeless, and totally of its time in its reflection of the earlys obsession with the phenomenon of the supermodel.
