RE: RE: RE: Do music videos matter anymore (SSC)

Yes and no I guess would be my reply as far as the lyrics go. The lyrics are address as to who JJF is, because in the video, Mick is dressed up with all of that makeup and face paint to be Jack himself, that's why all of the heavy makeup, he and the others in the band (other than Keith who doesn't wear any makeup) are clearly looking different for a reason. Note, they never wore makeup in that matter before this song and no other rocker ever wore face paint before this time. All that was part of the song's story. BTW, Mick (or was it Keith) was born in a cross-fire hurricane - that being WW2, as London was being bombed as he was born. Also remember that the real, true life Jack Flash, wasn't revealed until many years later by Keith, and there was no way that Jack Dyer, who's the real Jack in the song, was born during WW2, as he fought in that war. So the story told is more about Mick and Keith than even the real Jack himself. But on the other side of the coin, no, most of the lyrics aren't addressed in the video and I do understand where you are coming from, it's not a video like "Undercover of the Night", which does.
