Audio Bullys 'Way Too Long'
Audio Bullys Streets-level British house-hop is going from strength-to-strength; Simon Franks talks us through the visuals for this cautionary tale on the pitfalls of imprudent borrowing.
Audio Bullys 'Way Too Long' [ Dial-Up] [ Broadband]
"It's basically the story of this guy that's borrowed some money, or maybe owes his mates for some drugs, and he's not paid them back. So all his old mates go from just wondering where he's got to to getting really pissed off and trying to track him down. The video goes into the story in a bit more depth than the song does, in the video he gets the money, he raises it somehow or whatever, but instead of paying back his mates he just goes and blows it on a night out, trying to impress these girls. So eventually all his mates catch up with him.
"We told that story cos that's just what happens. That's what went on when we were kids, it was always someone owing somebody else money, falling out over debts and that.
"We shot it at thsi out of the way estate, out in the suburbs. If we'd done it where we grew up there wouldn't have been enough peace. Everyone in the video's a mate though, and I think we got better results than if we'd used actors. We just picked people we knew, that we knew would fit the parts.
"It's the first video we've actually appeared in and it was a lot of fun, I think we'll be in all of them from now on. "
