New Video: Gavin Rossdale, Forever May You Run
As you may recall, Tuesday’s Buzz Bites included this item: Gavin Rossdale, who continues to be inexplicably, unmanageably studly, has just released a solo video that uses the oldest trick in the book to up his man-babe factor. It stars his and Gwen Stefani’s 2-year-old son Kingston. Well, that wasn’t quite true.
It turns out, first of all, that Gavin Rossdale’s studliness needs no upping. The ex-Bush beefcake is topless for half of the video in question, and he’s in better shape than most sculptures. Secondly, Kingston is hardly a star, but he does flash his smushy, sweet little celebaby face at the 2:23 mark.
Now, on to the business at hand: Gavin Rossdale’s “Forever May You Run” video is awesome on a variety of levels. For one thing, It includes excessive running, and dude kiiinda runs like Steven Seagal. No offense Gavin. You look great.
Next, Gavin’s new video incorporates themes from all of your favorite movies. It opens with an angry Jerry Maguire-ish corporate walk-out, fades into a Forrest Gump running montage, which gives way to a dangerous Lord Of The Rings mountain scenario and culminates in a Hillside Singers-style ’70s Coke commercial which is sort of like a movie.
The song itself is classic Brit-rock. Soft sentimental verses lead into anthemic choruses, which in turn erupt into thumping minor-chord bridges with off-kilter tempos and searing, reverbed guitar solos. Think Snow Patrol Oasis / U2, only topless, ripped, and sprinting through a busy intersection. Got it? Good. Now watch.
Gavin Rossdale: Forever May You Run
In his new video, ‘Forever May You Run,’ former Bush frontman Gavin Rossdale — and husband of Gwen Stefani — dressed all in white, makes a run from his office job and instiutional life through city streets, stripping along the way. Rossdale wasn’t a fan of the outift originally. “White? Why can’t it be black?,” he tells PopEater of his original response to the attire.
But the director, Jesse Davey, changed his mind. “I kind of worked for him as an actor for a minute and [was] so impressed with him,” Rossdale says. “I don’t think I would’ve worn white for anyone else. I’m always about trying to move videos forward.”
He didn’t have to look too far for inspiration based on some of his favorite videos. “R.E.M. ‘Everybody Hurts’ — that’s a classic,” he says. “And Gwen’s got some great videos.” That’s a smart husband.
