View Full Version : Which Music Video Is This Still From?


Pages : [1] 2 3 4 5

With a movie and TV-series quiz, we need a music video quiz too!


How it works: I shall post the first still to get things going. First person to correctly submit the movie it is from posts the next still. Then everyone else guesses, until someone gets the right movie and so on and so forth.

Advice on getting the stills: Simple. Just slap the name of your intended movie into Google Image. If that doesn't give you good enough stills, go to Youtube and take a screenshot yourself.



Without further ado...:

Edit: The more stills with hooters, the better.

The current song/still is from a pretty good recent hard-rock band, by the way.

It reminds me of one by Velvet Revolver, but I only know one of their songs...Slither or something like that.

Haha, no Till, that's not Emma Bunton. And it's not Peter Schilling either. His first name is Andy.

Niklas
Nov 29, 2007, 02:21 PM
Alright, no takers so some more clues.

The group's name is rather long, but usually given as a three-letter acronym. The lead singer and frontman is Andy McCluskey. And if that isn't enough, the song chorus goes like this:

Man you should have seen us
on our way to Venus
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
it was quite a da-a-ay
where you of course exchange the . . . . stuff for the title line.

No googling on the name or the lyrics now. ;)

Alright, enough is enough. I'm surprised that this group, and song(!), seem to be so little known, to me they have always been up there with Depeche Mode and Alphaville as one of the big synthpop groups. IMO probably the best of them too. The correct answer is

OMD - Walking on the milky way (http://youtube.com/watch?v=v2KfrmKCmAQ)

Go listen to it if you haven't heard it, great song IMO.

Wow. I thought that was him, but. Well, I tried to make some acceptable stills, but everytime I pasted them into paint they went completely black. A copy protection thing? Not sure. Bart said he scanned his own stills so there must be a way, maybe paint can't handle them. I had some nice hooterific stills too. :( If anyone else would like a go while I work out my technical difficulties, feel free, but I reserve the right to post hooters when I get them working.

Bartleby
Dec 04, 2007, 09:55 AM
If you want to capture stills from a DVD you need to use the DVD software to do it...something about the picture being sent straignt to the monitor or some sutch.
I use WinDVD4, which was pre-installed on my comp, but I assume most programs will do it...just mess around with the controls a bit.

Olav
Dec 04, 2007, 10:10 AM
I'm using the VLC media player, and I had the same problem as you Marsden (when pressing printscreen and pasting into Paint).

If you're using VLC too, pause the video at the right moment, select "video" then "snapshot". The snapshot is stored in the directory you choose(Preferences -> video -> video snapshot directory).

Marsden
