To Steve: Yes, that's the video I am talking about. To Leslie: I agree it would be cool to see VH1 play a Basia video as it would be cool to hear a radio station play a Basia tune. However, my point is that if one has the video, one does not have to wait on VH1 to get some good taste and play a Basia video.
