The notion of a post apocalyptic bomb shelter that has very usefully been converted into a ’70s –era discothèque [4:15]The inexplicable cinematic switch to Spanish/black and white; Don Henley spitefully calling me a ‘Yankee’ [3:26]Much needed fist pumping [0:09, 0:55, 1:12, 1:16, 1:41, 1:43, 3:49]Drummers hair [2:59]Gratuitous saxophone close-ups, enthusiastic saxophonist to match [2:50]The combination of errant sparks [1:35, 1:39] and water [2:05, 2:27]Don’s thoughtful gesticulation of the word ‘scrounge’ [2:13]Trumpet player’s subtle but deadly beat-keeping between parts of the song that require his instrument [2:05]What looks to be Jamie Lee Curtis on the maracas [1:56]Courageous wailing on the key-tar [1:50]Controlled, tasteful, sporadic fires [1:31]The man who seems to represent ‘crazy people walkin round, with blood in their eyes’ [1:15], and this same man’s reaction to being spit on, given the context of walking around with blood in his eyes [1:30]Don’s face when he sings ‘Wild eyed pistol wavers who aint afraid to die” [1:20]The idea of a nimble footed, dance-crazed cavewoman dressed in salsa dancer clothes [0:34]Everything about this video [0:01]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4hd_1SjnuI
