Just saw the Rock the Casbah video for the first time and it’s… really literal in that second-generation music video way where they’re like “we need something more than just a filmed stage performance, let’s act out the lyrical themes in the most obvious way”

Like it’s an Arab sheikh and a Hasidic Jew driving a convertible around Texas, going to the gas station and dancing their way to the concert, intercut with the band in camo performing the song in front of a nodding donkey, when they get to the “jet fighters” bit they just have footage of like Dassault warplanes cruising around
