I discovered "Girls on Film" by unfortunate accident - the music video.  I greatly appreciated the live version some time later.

 

I discovered "Planet Earth," "Careless Memories," and "Night Boat" through Live from London - a DVD my mom got me as a gift for completing my last Fall semester as an undergraduate in 2007.

 

My album collection grew because of the DVD.  My collection grew to include Duran Duran.  I took great interest in "Tel Aviv" as a sole instrumental.

 

And then there is "Planet Earth."  Live, always.  Recorded, it's been awhile.  Music video, intrigued.

 

As with "Driven to Tears," the music video for "Planet Earth" shared a message.  A profound statement is made when music addresses the state of society, whether then or now.

 

Consider the message brought forth in the music video for "Planet Earth" -

 

 

On a lighthearted conclusion, enjoy the other version of "Planet Earth" -
