Hedley like the Wolf

I caught the newest video by Hedley called "Never Too Late" and I don't think I've ever been so impressed with a video. It's a complete and utter duplicate, down to the smallest details, of Duran Duran's "Rio" The only difference, is of course the song itself, and maybe just a couple cute little site gags. ...and if you ask me the eye candy is better in the new version.

It's rare, except at Christmas that feel the urge to share video with y'all, but this video is just that good... the song, well it's ok. heh

And so, for your comparative viewing pleasure, I offer you:

Duran Duran
Rio
(1983)



Hedley
Never Too Late

(2008)



And just to knock the wind out of all of us late-30s and 40 somethings...

Jacob Hoggard, the lead singer of Hedley was born in 1983. One year after Rio was released.

Ouch.
