Help recalling a music video from the 80's....
#334984 - 12/08/14 04:32 PM


What I can recall from it is a scene where there are these guys in dark blue (maybe) suits and sun-glasses, they're crawling up (or down?) a wide stairway. The left most guy is a normal/average sized guy, and they get smaller going to the right, where the right-most guy is like this impossibly small midget. There's about 5 guys (I think).


From the lyrics that I recall - I was thinking it was Elton John's "I Don't Wanna Go on with You Like That", but that video has nothing like like what I described above. So it must be a different one (by a different artist perhaps).

Does anyone know / have an idea of what I'm talking about?

what lyrics do you recall? That would probably be far more useful than anything else you gave us to go on...



Just broke my personal record for number of consecutive days without dying!

Unless there's a different version of (the video of) Elton John's 'I don't wanna go on with you like that' then... Sorry, no. :-(


If I share any more of what is stored / corrupted in my memory - then you'll just get confused as I obviously am.


All we have to go on at this point are the dudes dressed in dark colored suits, wearing sunglasses, crawling on the stairs towards the camera, biggest to smallest going from left to right.








Mind you, this ^moment in the video is only for several seconds. The artist/singer is also dressed in said dark colored suit and black sun-glasses, playing a keyboard on a stand (& this is why I thought, maybe, Billy Joel?) but that turns up nothing too.

I guess the reason this moment stands out in my mind is due to the 'midget/dwarf', because... Man! That looked really bizarre -how small he was.
