The Pogues - A Pair of Brown Eyes 1985
Shane MacGowan composition. Wiki. Bizarre video.
The music video for the single, filmed in 1985, was directed by Alex Cox. It is set in a Nineteen Eighty-Four-esque Britain, now a police state, with Margaret Thatcher in the place of Big Brother as a supreme, god-like authoritarian figure. The video stars English singer Kirsty MacColl, who is annoyed by an old man on a train. It features roles played by band members as well as a cameo by the record's producer Elvis Costello. Images of eyes abound, with most characters in blindfolds or wearing goggles, and one official wears an eyepatch.
