New video surfaces! I just received a video tape from a Basia fan for inclusion in the collection that's going to cause a bit of a stir. It's the (I thought lost) video for her TSI song "Yearning", and in my opinion, its her best one. Its not a straight performance piece like "Promises" or "Prime Time TV", but its not a narrative like "Time and Tide" or "Cruising for Bruising". Its more of an emotional piece -- the ideas of it had a lot of similarities to R.E.M.'s "Losing My Religion", one of my favorite videos of all time. It looks like it cost a lot to make, far more than the "Third Time Lucky" or "Drunk on Love" videos which look pieced together from tour footage. This will be the next one I digitize -- I'll also see about doing a "very-low-bitrate" MPEG version of it, probably around 6M, to put online. Thanks to Eugene for finding this and getting it to me... we all are going to appreciate it! - -- Benjamin L.
