New Counting Crows Video - "You Can't Count On Me"
This video reflects, pretty much exactly, how we imagine Adam Duritz lives his life: in a sweet Manhattan apartment that August bought, bathed in flattering "Long December"-esque lighting all day and night, walking around the apartment staring at Polaroids and finding new and poetic ways to hate himself. Oh yeah, and also: hurting a different pretty lady every time we look in. Pretty much, right? OK! You're ready for the new video.
Alright, that his house came with DVD-quality reality-pausing was, in fact a surprise. That Adam had a shot in the vid with his name scrawled on an envelope ("Adam"!) most definitely was not.
Saturday Nights & Sunday Mornings is out 3/25 on Geffen/Interscope.

I think it's Counting Crows, rather than Counting Crowes.
Score = 0
I've only listened to the new album through once, but first impressions would say it's the weakest thing they've come up with. Really generic stuff. Which I suppose most people would've expected, but I was kinda hoping they'd surprise us with this. They didn't. Not at all.
And what a shit video. Why is every action that guy does so overacted? "Look everyone! I'm EMOTING!".
Score = 2

Was never a fan and I had a friend who worked with Duritz on a photo shoot and said he was one of the most unpleasant people to deal with.
