QUIO "SO DAZED - VIDEOMIX“  by agf producktion

EXPERIMENTAL MUSICVIDEO by Christine Lang & Maria Schoepe

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ SYNOPSIS

In this experimental music video the singer is put to a test: A day like everyday. But suddenly something happens - the reflection of quio herself appears on the tv-screen, the water doesn’t fall downwards anymore, the cutlery falls to the ceiling... gravitation is suspended. Quio has to orientate herself in a new way and then she discovers the advantages of the new room structure.

This almost „gondryesk“ video cites a kind of futuristic fifties aesthetics and is a play with space, camera and film technologies.


LYRICS  ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

1982 I was here / where were you? my mind was clear / 1993 four a’clock /
you had your tea but what in stock? / 2001 you made me stunned / shook my hand just to hide an run / last week, yesterday / I felt hurt but still okay / as we’re drivin / I’m still fighting / my tears and I’m lighting / A cigarette, I ignite and sing / so dazed so dazed, still sleep in my eyes / so faint, so delicate, I heard you talk sweet and oh so nice!
