So, as Alfred Hitchcock was used to make a cameo apparence in his movies, it appears that the Chemical Brothers also make one in their music videos. Let's make a thread about it :


Life Is Sweet

http://www.youtube.c...h?v=F6dTjQWUFco

Well, that's not really a cameo, they can be seen several times during the video


Setting Sun

http://www.youtube.c...h?v=p5NX1FC-7-w

Just at the beginning and at the end


Block Rockin' Beats

http://www.youtube.c...h?v=1BVADNUyDZY

2:26 at the bar


Elektrobank

http://www.youtube.c...h?v=L0dxByaPWhM

5:32 on the photo in the frame


Hey Boy Hey Girl

http://www.youtube.c...h?v=64szVQugrAo

3:30 going out of the taxi


Let Forever Be

http://www.youtube.c...h?v=Hmpxsk3dHaA

I did not see them. Maybe the drummer but I don't think so.


Out Of Control

http://www.youtube.c...h?v=6sOpbRL8R4g

3:14 on the TV screen


Star Guitar

http://www.youtube.c...h?v=0S43IwBF0uM

Well, no appearance for this one


The Test

http://www.youtube.c...h?v=QDe6MZQjpho

4:49 on the dancing girl's T-shirt (not very clear but I assume it's them)


The Golden Path

http://www.youtube.c...h?v=vlgsfLkAUVg

2:33 as employees of the month


Get Yourself High

http://www.youtube.c...h?v=ojmxYR_6GNk

I don't see them but I don't think they appear


Galvanize

http://www.youtube.c...h?v=H2hzVV2Nwfs

I'm not sure but I think at 1:47, part of the guys researched byt the Policia


Believe

http://www.youtube.c...h?v=c_IkUysQASQ

1:56 on the computer screen


The Boxer

http://www.youtube.c...h?v=yu99_ulxyFI

2:40 as truck drivers


Do It Again

http://www.youtube.c...h?v=UVrwzjtBHq0

Again, I did not see them


The Salmon Dance

http://www.youtube.c...h?v=TOyDkwaUh-Y

3:54 as little scuba divers


Midnight Madness

http://www.youtube.c...h?v=cHtoBqmRYfA

Another video in which I don't think they appear. Btw, this video is crap.


Let me know if I missed something !

Kudos to Kosek!

I hadn't realized there were music videos that Tom and Ed did not show up in for their songs.

kosek solves the Midnight Madness riddle! Man, if you haven't considered film editing as a profession, you should seriously consider it!

do you think Tom and Ed were waiting to see how much time it would take for us to notice that ?

So does the same apply to any of the other music videos in which they are said not to appear?

Kosek wins lifetime chemical memorabilia.

That was a tough find.

Do It Again on 3:29! Put the vid on 480p for a better look(look at the TV's)

Shows Ed and then switches to Tom.

Yeah, they are there! Just watched the video by accident and they are on that police poster, actually. Ed's in the upper left and Tom in the middle. I guess, guy next to Tom is there for a reason too.
Now, I'll check out Midnight Madness.
I love that hide and seek game with their video clips (remember Star Guitar? :smile: ) !

Is it just me or does one of the street characters in the Dissolve visualization bare a resemblance to Tom?

The guy I'm talking about is the second street character Further Girl meets in Dissolve at about 23:24 into the Further Experience (the character makes several other reappearances throughout Dissolve)
He's wearing a sort of newsboy cap, carries a clipboard.

It might not be Tom at all but my husband and I think it could be!

I thought something like this too, but then I saw the documentary and unfortunately it's not him.
