Popdose: CAPTAIN VIDEO!: Air Supply, “Making Love Out of Nothing At All”

  • DwDunphy · 1 year ago
    In a perfect world, Jim Steinman and Andrew Lloyd Webber would headbutt each other just once - but because it is Lloyd webber and Steinman, that one headbutt would last 17 minutes.

    They did: the result is a musical called "Whistle Down The Wind".

    As I think I've stated in previous CHART ATTACKS!, I adore this video. My two favorite moments:

    4:36: when she mouths "I love you."
    4:43: when they cut to the two-shot of Graham and Russell. Graham is shouting his love sonnets to the girl, but Russell looks at him in a moment that I like to think is first confusion ("are you talking to me?") and then excitement ("he loves me!").

    Another brilliant post, Captain!

    Every time Jason watches this video, he is hoping for a Graham and Russell kiss.

    Maybe next time...

    "I can make the runner stumble, I can make the final block ..." Are we supposed to imagine Russell Hitchcock playing football? Meat Loaf, in a pinch, okay, maybe on the defensive line or something, but what would ol' Russ do? I mean, aside from looking hilarious in shoulder pads ...

    Shouldn't the sports metaphors be Aussie Rules? Or cricket?

    "I can take the final wicket, I can leg-spin all night long ..."

    I know I should view Air Supply as a guilty pleasure, but, no, when it comes to the big hits, I just plain love 'em. That's right: I close my eyes and ride the skies in my sweet dreams of Graham and Russell. But even with that disconcertingly homo-erotic imagery now sitting on the 'net for all to see (in retrospect, maybe I don't like them THAT much), I still mock them mercilessly whenever I catch that Time-Life commercial they're doing these days...

    "a castrato with his ass on fire..." You may be way out in space Captain, but you have me rolling with laughter here on Earth.
