Synopsis

Andy Taylor performs "I Might Lie" in a dark, highly stylized setting washed in blue light. The video opens with a glowing plasma lamp and a motorcycle before moving into close-ups of Taylor singing and playing guitar. Road imagery and shots of the bike create a sense of motion and nocturnal escape, while the performance remains the central focus. Rather than following a conventional narrative, the clip emphasizes atmosphere, rock-star presence, and the sleek, cinematic visual language associated with late-1980s music videos.

Factoids & Trivia

  • "I Might Lie" appeared on Taylor's 1987 debut solo album, "Thunder," released after his work with Duran Duran and the Power Station.
  • The song was written and produced by Taylor with former Sex Pistols guitarist Steve Jones. Jones also played guitar on the album.
  • The track reached No. 17 on the US Billboard Album Rock Tracks chart, making it one of Taylor's strongest solo chart performances.
  • The video's visual design is built around contrasts: the vivid blue lighting, the glowing plasma lamp, the motorcycle, and the dark performance set give the clip a polished yet slightly futuristic 1987 rock aesthetic.
  • Road footage links the song to the motorcycle imagery without turning the video into a conventional story. The result is closer to a mood piece than a plot-driven promotional film.
  • The video is listed as a 1987 music video with a running time of approximately five minutes.
