CRYSTAL Remix

I cannot recall who requested, or suggested, that Warner's commission a new video for the cd single of Crystal in America , but I suggested Gina Birch (who had directed “1963”). They would only spend $5,000 and I knew that Gina had been shooting herself and editing a lot at home. She had been making videos for the Libertines which I liked. I also knew that Gina had recently adopted her first little girl Honey and could use the money.

Honey is in the video and it is in the homemade style that Gina has developed to use in live performances of her own music.
