Cruise Control

Headless Chickens

Synopsis

‘Cruise Control’ is one of the Headless Chicken’s most poppy and accessible songs, and became a hit in New Zealand, and (in remixed form), in Australia. This studio shot promo, for the ‘Eskimos in Egypt’ remix, has Fiona McDonald and the Chickens packed into a touring car cruising to old school rear projected nighttime cityscapes. It’s dark and moody: a wry touch of Hollywood glamour mixed with early 90s Auckland - dated by Knight Rider, bling and brick-sized mobile phones.

Hello - we certainly do have credits where we are able to find out the information! If you know of anything we've missed, you're more than welcome to let us know.
In case you missed these ones, scroll down the page a little and you'll see two director credits for this clip.
If we've made a mistake, let us know.
