Has anyone here seen "The Wind Chimes"? If so can you give me a review of the video and tell me if it's worth buying?

I wrote a small amount about The Wind Chimes in reply to your video compilations post.

The title track is interesting...something to watch while you listen. Mainly Mike playing around with some video equipment. I wouldn't call it a masterpiece of film making, but it's fun (and it's the images which Mike saw fit to put with the music, which must count for something...).

The rest of them...again, something to watch. You can see the various singers and that sort of thing. There are even a few cases of interlinked images, and things turning up in more than one place...
The 'Magic Touch' video stands out from the rest - it was co-directed by Alex Proyas and I think it works better because of that (I did hear that Mike's only visual contribution to the video was the small 'drummer' graphic that crops up in a couple places - an element which seems rather out of place...but you'll have to see the video to know what I mean).

I enjoyed watching it, and didn't regret having bought it.
