Here's a question: Yes, the majority of us LOVE "Serious". I'd read somewhere (forget where) that the reason Nick chews bubblegum throughout the video is cos he didn't think the song should've been a single. Any accuracy about that report? Can someone confirm/correct? I believe it is partly about, or inspired by, a breakdown in one of his relationships which is why he didn’t want them to play it live - I was told that by someone who would have been told by the band back in the 90s

Interesting! Thanks for the heads up - couldn't quite wrap my head around him not liking the song!

I've heard that too, that Nick didn't really care for the song. But I have no idea where I heard it. It could have been from some other random poster here simply saying it without evidence for all I know. It would be nice to know if it's true or not. Would be a great story if true, especially since he made one of the best soundscapes he has ever done for a DD-song, if you listen carefully to the synths of Serious, wow, absolutely out of this world!

I must admit that I thought Nick chewing gum in the video was in reference to the lyric "doesn't have to be serious" as the band seem to be acting slightly goofy throughout the video with lots of smiles, laughing etc.

I can’t believe I missed this interview at the time it came out. I looked for it after John Jones mentioned it on the Road To Medazzaland docu. Very good interview. Agree on Serious as a first single, although I kinda like First Impression, and Chris wasn’t a big fan of that song.
