Ever wonder what the Apple Ads with the dancing people would look like if all of the dancers had autism? (Ed Note: Relax. All my children will have autism.) Well, now we know, thanks to the re-re stylings of Coldplay’s Chris Martin, who makes an appearance in Kanye West‘s latest opus, Schindler’s List… I mean, “Homecoming.” The black and white video for what is personally is my favorite song off of the Graduation album, is a bit of a let down, in that it’s a black and white video of Kanye just sort of moseying of around Chicago, staring at himself in the giant mirrored lima bean downtown, just sorta kickin’ the dirt, thinking of the olden days. Meanstwhile, Chris Martin’s silhouette remains hovering in the background, doing weird jazz handy things while also providing the song’s melody.
OK, OK, the video isn’t that bad… it’s almost good. But the question remains: Is Chris Martin the Shannon “Blind Melon” Hoon of the new millennium? His floppy hand gestures suggest: Yes.
