July 22, 200717 yr Author Thanks for that Suggy. i adore the SIO video. and i think if his next single is a balled there should be a love interest involved..I ...erm..i mean..He would enjoy that very much :wub: :lol: i think Will is going to make the first male love story video... Ever. :dance: I would love to see it too but I'm not sure the public are ready for it. :unsure: Having said that Brokeback Mountain was a huge success & Will isn't afraid to push the boundaries. Maybe you could send him some ideas Bev. You must be feeling inspired after last night's video clips. :naughty: Edited July 22, 200717 yr by truly talented
July 22, 200717 yr I would love to see it too but I'm not sure the public are ready for it. Course they are...they just don't know it yet :dance: i'm not talking about Sex...(sadly) :cry: ..but LOVE..it can be done gently and romanticlly.....ease the GBP into the idea...slow and steady..i think he will be the one to do it fisrt. :wub: Maybe you could send him some ideas Bev. You must be feeling inspired after last night's video clips. :naughty: :blink: Ooh the ideas i have about such things... :wub: but i wouldn't dare...i'd make the guy blush i'm sure.. :lol:
July 22, 200717 yr Thanks Suggy. Actually I think the public are ready, it just needs someone to do it. I'd love it to be Will, if only because his video's are always of such quality - maybe we misjudge the public sometimes, I think the vast majority are more tolerant than we give them credit for. The minority who would be offended are probably already offended by Will simply because he's openly gay ;) Edited July 22, 200717 yr by Lainey
July 22, 200717 yr I forgot about this album thread so I've added the article about Will's videos to this topic. :D
July 22, 200717 yr Xtina had a small gay sequence in her video for Beautiful - so Will won't be the first - just maybe the first to do it in person rather than use stand-ins.

Can you imagine the outcry though munchkin if Will snogged anyone in his videos? yet no one said a dickybird when Jake Shears did it in his Filthy Gorgeous video did they? I think it's a case of who you are and not what you are. :cool:

I think it's a case of who you are and not what you are. :cool: Your so right suggy. That's why I have my reservations. :( Can't honestly see Will ever snogging a guy in one of his vids but it would be nice for it be shown in a sensitive way that his love interest was in fact a man instead of being ambiguous as in LRN & ATL.
July 22, 200717 yr I this the public could handle a few 'looks' and hand holding.....in fact - I think it would do the public good to emphasise the love angle rather than the sex.....which is all some of them can see..... :huh:
July 22, 200717 yr Oh!..here it is..i thought i had been deleted bacuse you ladies and lowered to tone . :blink: :lol: There doesn't have to be kissing in the video..much as i'd love that...but it could be shown that their a couple..without an added female. :angry: .or Will singing to the camera. Xtina did show two men kissing..but it wasn't as a love interest..it wasn't personal..just about it being ok no matter 'what they say' Will could make it as it is for him...normal. :wub:
July 22, 200717 yr You can bet your bottom dollar that if Will snogged anyone in a video, then he'd have to face all sorts of criticism. Although of course it's perfectly all right for anyone else to do it. :rolleyes:
July 22, 200717 yr "I know that as a gay man there are still some things I'm not able to do" I find it incredibly sad that William knows he won't be 'allowed' to do certain things - yet a straight man can portray a gay man but Joe Public finds it uncomfortable to even think about a real gay man doing the same things.

July 22, 200717 yr What do you think were getting for this next album?..do you think his three video rule still applies?.
July 22, 200717 yr Author What do you think were getting for this next album?..do you think his three video rule still applies?. I hope that as he's keeping us waiting he'll take pity on us & give us more than 3 releases. Edited July 22, 200717 yr by truly talented
July 22, 200717 yr I hope that as he's keeping us waiting he'll take pity on us & give us more than 3 releases. The way things are going in the singles chart now and with less music outlets selling singles, I doubt we'll even get 3 physical releases next time round, probably 2 physical and 1 download only release. :(
July 22, 200717 yr The way things are going in the singles chart now and with less music outlets selling singles, I doubt we'll even get 3 physical releases next time round, probably 2 physical and 1 download only release. :( I can see that happening. Pity as we'll lose some B sides, and some of Will's B sides have been pretty good, if not great. :dance:

July 22, 200717 yr I despair about the way the music industry is going...if you dont have a pc what the hell are you supposed to do? Whers it all going? Not even anywhere to promote...I think we are going to see a lot of our artists 'disappear' over the next couple of years :unsure:

Not even anywhere to promote...I think we are going to see a lot of our artists 'disappear' over the next couple of years :unsure: I don't really see Will as a big selling singles artist anymore though Tillywhim, I see him being more of an album seller since the Keep On album and I think that the next round of Will promotion will show that. I think that's how Will and his management see it as well now, I also think the majority of his fanbase are album buyers anyway and seeing as he gets good radio airplay (I hear him on the radio nearly every day) I don't see it as a problem. :D
July 23, 200717 yr Hope your right Suggy...but I do feel I have to worry for him...been doing it for so long now its a hard habit to kick :D
July 23, 200717 yr Author We are all so looking forward to the new album but we will be nervous wrecks when it's released.
