Ben Harper - "Diamonds on the Inside" (video)

[allow that]

I caught this video last night. I didn't even know it had a video (a problem with most AAA songs & vids IMO). This video is great. The imagery is pretty cool, there's a lot of surfing in the video which is what drew me in. But the way angle of the camera under the waves and all is really something else. There' s a cute girl in the video too, that looks like Kate Bosworth. Anyway, my point here is, why do MTV/VH1 have to neglect these types of videos? they are so good and there's actually a lot of people (college students) who are really into this type of music. I think Vh1 should go this angle instead of trying to become E! Part 2.

Anyway, the reason I posted this here instead of Your Opnion Please? is because 1) Most people there probably haven't even heard the song 2) I also want to use this topic to see when/if "DOTI" breaks Hot AC (it went for adds there about 2 weeks ago).

So, thought on the video? Precictions for the song at Hot AC?

I think this could be a pop hit too. I recommended to my pop/hot AC station a few weeks back. No word on it yet but I can totally see them playing it. This is a smash waiting to occur!

Mike, I thought I was replying w/ quote to your above post, but instead I clicked "modify" lol.

Anyway, if this is going to end up being a Hot AC hit, it sure is going to take its own sweet time doing so.
