[edit] Video on Single Video Theory DVD

I don't know why the article says this, I have the DVD and it's not on it. Unless someone can show it is on the DVD the comment should be removed from the article. JedEgan 00:44, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] MTV 25th Anniversary

They showed the "Jeremy" music video on MTV this morning.

[edit] Video description?

I think that a minute-by-minute description of the video is totally unnecessary. A synopsis would suffice. Xander 17:00, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

I disagree. I think that the video description is great. It is hard to completely understand it without watching it, and this description is the next best thing.(some guy)

I also disagree. I like it. Such an iconic video deserves thiskind of description. How come the lyrics are not written somewhere in the article??--201.114.96.112 21:12, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

Including the full lyrics would probably be copyright infringement. Itub 13:25, 30 September 2006 (UTC)

I've cut the blow-by-blow description of the video. It really was excessive (over 1,300 words, and about 50% of the entire article), contained some POV descriptions, and quoted such a large portion of the lyrics that I fear it may have been in violation of fair use. This description would be great on a PJ fan site, but isn't really appropriate here. CKarnstein 05:02, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] [edit] The original low-budget video

Could someone please put up a reference link for this fact. I personally havent come across any site that validates this fact.

I am the user who deleted the "lives on in bootlegs" sentence and replaced it with "(See link below for video.)" I did this because I expended needless effort trying to find the "bootleg" only to realize the article contained a link to the video on the director's website, in that case it hardly qualifies as a "bootleg" My "See link below" has since been removed. As far as "putting up a reference link for validation", isn't a link to the video proof of its existence?
