See Me Go

In 1981 this infectious ska-pop tune defied mainstream radio and made Kiwi pop history, by entering the top 20 at number one. The Screaming Meemees hailed from the North Shore of Auckland; the members were all ex-students of Rosmini College. Chart success meant a breakneck trip to Wellington to make a video at TVNZ's Avalon Studios. Director and occasional musician Simon Morris raided the props cupboard for flowers and masques, and makes clever use of shadow and silhouettes to create the clip's nocturnal, pop goth feel. It's skinny pants and big fringes, and a large neon crucifix referencing the band's Catholic roots.
