I've found out that the band denied DoRo's alternative concept for the "Invisible Man" video.
A Variete storyline with a Houdini like character set in London's 1920's, was the alternative to the "computer game" video.
The idea itself sounds not to bad imo. But in case of DoRo I 'am afraid it might have looked a bit cheap in the end :)
Anyway, we will never find out I guess
Sure, the "Zeitgeist" called for the Video Game plot.
But DoRo's idea perhaps would have gave us a timless classic (relating purly to the video)...or would have gone terribly wrong :)
Perhaps they thought it a bit too similar to AKOM?
I really do like those videos for The Miracle. Remind me of being young and excited. By Innuendo I was pretty much over it.
Maybe it's the bassist in a hat, but if you told me that was REM I'd believe you.
I remember entering a competition on BBC kids TV to win the shades Freddie wore. I've never got over the fact I didn't get them.
...where Brian is clearly the best dancer in the band.

Yes, he got the moves.....:)
What suprises me that we were told a couple of years ago QP lost the outakkes/ making of a lot of the Miracle videos including the Miracle, Headlong ( Innuendo) and Invisible Man.
It seems they found a lot since this video turned up.
