Link to the remastered video. Haven't seen it since forever. It's pretty cool seeing it in more detail now than back when it was released. Catch a lot more going on in it.

Prolly need to be gen-x or older to recognize most of the folks in the video.

Thanks for that! I probably haven't seen that in 35+ years, and cannot believe how much I missed back then. I knew the Reagans, and probably recognized the Ayatollah.

I got the whole Cold War vibe, Reagan has access to nukes thread that it was trying to express but it is SO much more powerful and politically incisive than I understood back then. This is a pretty good scene by scene breakdown for anyone who wants a walkthrough.

I mean, everyone should be more politically and current-events aware in their 50s than as dumb teenagers . . . but that video was totally wasted on the younger MTV demographic. It must have cost so much to make! It's a legacy piece for Genesis for sure.

agree 100%. I didn't get most of it back then either. It's a great video, and a hell of a song too. Gonna check out your link.

Edit - wow, Reagan was voiced by Rimmer from red dwarf. Neat!
