Suede – Saturday Night

[vimeo]http://vimeo.com/14630578[/vimeo]

Saturday Night was shot in the Holborn underground station [Kingsway, London], the only station where filming is allowed. There’s this disused line heading to Aldwych that can be used for shooting. For the party scene, they [these party people are fanclub members] go 50 feet further down the track into the tunnel. It features actress Keeley Hawes, who you’d probably noticed appearing in James’ video “She’s A Star“. Aqua also shot their video Turn Back Time there; also the Propellerheads with David Arnold for their song On Her Majesty’s Secret Service.

[spoiler name=”Lyrics”]Today she’s been working, she’s been talking,

she’s been smoking, its gonna be alright

Cos tonight we’ll go dancing, we’ll go laughing, we’ll get car sick

and it’ll be okay like everyone says, it’ll be alright and ever so nice

We’re going out tonight, out and about tonight

Oh whatever makes her happy on a Saturday night

Oh whatever makes her happy, whatever makes it alright

Today she’s been sat there, sat there in a black chair,

office furniture, but it’ll be alright

Cos tonight we’ll go drinking, we’ll do silly things

and never let the winter in

And it’ll be okay like everyone says, it’ll be alright and ever so nice

We’re going out tonight, out and about tonight.

Oh whatever makes her happy on a Saturday night

Oh whatever makes her happy, whatever makes it alright

…we’ll go peepshows and freak shows,

We’ll go to discos, casinos,

We’ll go where people go and let go…

…oh whatever makes her happy…[/spoiler]
