This is something that has been busting my brain for years, please put me out of my misery. Does anyone know where the video was film and which train station?

everytime I take the train, I think I recognize some elements from the video. But since I never travelled from Nimes to Avignon, I was probably wrong :( I should go there someday, just to see whet he picked.

My son went through a lengthy phase where he was constantly infatuated with trains - and he just loved the Star Guitar video! Whenever he'd see the video, the part where the train pulls up to the station - he would say "Aww, the little yellow town. I want to go to the little yellow town!! Can we take a train to the little yellow town?"

The video is on my digital picture frame. Plays all day!


I never been on a train. The one at Disneyland doesn't count..or does it?

probably the station exists. Although, some parts of it do look lile models...

haha It was the Disneyland railroad that got my son into trains. When we finally took him on his first real train ride (a brief Amtrak trip from Irvine to San Juan Capistrano), he kept asking where the dinosaurs were!

yes, and apparently he used Arkaos (a VJ software) to make the real video.

Shibuya and Shinjuku. Easily recognisable if you have ever had to venture into such madness... preferably on your way to buy some gadgets from Akihabara.

Well words can describe it but it includes some expletives at the same time......

So basically I have been there many a time but never that observant.......

To the next time in Japan....probably 2010
