Synopsis

'Maybe' was the title track from Sharon O'Neill's 1981 album and she wrung every drop of emotion out of the performance. The video sees her during a sad break up, wandering around the flat in black tights and a cavalry jacket and slumping against walls as she ponders on exactly how things came to this. It's in glorious black and white apart from the relationship flashbacks during the bridge, which oddly look like a montage from a sitcom. Mostly it begs the question: During the 1980s, did people really dress like that around the house?

I wanted a hair cut just like it when this song came out. The weird thing is that I seem to have gone full circle and am back to having the same haircut!
