This is the original music video for "Gold" by Spandeau Ballet. It features the band lip-synching and playing the song, with the lead singer, Tony Hadley, chasing a girl who's stolen one of his golden puzzle pieces. We will make use of a few features of their original video, such as the costuming. In the original video, Tom Hadley wears a suit and also makes us of taking off his sunglasses for dramatic effect which we think is effecting. We also like how gestural he is, reflecting the strong beats of the music, so we think we may do a similar thing to this, but really overdo it, almost like a spoof.
Lyrics:
Thank you for coming home
I'm sorry that the chairs are all worn
I left them here I could have sworn
These are my salad days
Slowly being eaten away
Just another play for today
Oh but I'm proud of you, but I'm proud of you
There's nothing left to make me feel small
Luck has left me standing so tall
Gold
Always believe in your soul
You've got the power to know
You're indestructible
Always believe in, because you are
Gold
Glad that you're bound to return
There's something I could have learned
You're indestructible, always believe in
After the rush has gone
I hope you find a little more time
Remember we were partners in crime
It's only two years ago
The man with the suit and the pace
You know that he was there on the case
Now he's in love with you, he's in love with you
Love is like a high prison wall
But you could leave me standing so tall
Gold
Always believe in your soul
You've got the power to know
You're indestructible
Always believe in, because you are
Gold
Glad that you're bound to return
There's something I could have learned
You're indestructible, always believe in
(Musical interlude)
For love is like a high prison wall
And you could leave me standing so tall
Gold
Always believe in your soul
You've got the power to know
You're indestructible
Always believe in, because you are
Gold
Glad that you're bound to return
There's something I could've learned
You're indestructible
Always believe in
