For you they are boring. So one thought came to my mind. Dieter is the director of these videos. You find them dull. So he is a wretched person, yes? Let's see. The music is the first thing, right? Lyrics is not important as much as the music. The proof of it is that when you're listening to the music, the first thing you're noticing is music, isn't it? All the music is composed by Boris. Dieter's voice isn't so strong to call him a good singer. So he is a bad director, he is not a good singer and he never have an influence on the music. He is NOTHING. (As for me, I don't think so) It means that if Yello could split or if Boris could make another collaboration, then nobody would care. Best, Olga (Patient). Doctor, can you diagnose my disease right?! I know that once one doctor treated his patient for the cold but his patient has died of the cancer. (Doctor). You have no need to be afraid!

Of course if someone lacks in one area of talent, it doesn't mean that person is devoid of ANY talent. Is Dieter totally in charge of making Yello's videos? Most artists prefer to get professional directors to do their videos, and even though they have some influence on the style, it's the director who really makes it happen. It sometimes takes someone completely independent from the making of the music to bring a new vision to making a great video. I recently saw a little documentary on Busta Rhymes, and the director he likes and often chooses to direct his video. If any of you have seen them (especially the new one for "Gimme Some More"), they are fascinating works of art; their own genre; and completely unlike any other "rap" or "hip-hop" video. They embrace images that both compliment and heavily contrast the music being played. So don't 'throw the baby out with the bathwater.' Any of you might strongly dislike Yello's videos, but that shouldn't take away your love of their music. davy # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info yello" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email yello@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. # Yello discography available at http://www.swcp.com/lazlo-bin/discogs?yello ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 22 Dec 1998 23:57:13 +0100 From: David John Subject: (yello) More News The mysterious person by the name Oliver has mailed me this: At 25.1.1999 is the official date for "Excentric."

The point is that not even = Mercury have decided 100% yet what to release and when. There are plans, = but as long as they are only plans I am not allowed to reveal anything. = By early January they will hopefully have decided 100%, and then I'll = give you full details.
