Synopsis

TheSTART perform "Gorgeous" onstage before an enthusiastic club audience at the Whisky a Go-Go in Los Angeles. The video stays focused on the band's live energy, moving between shots of Aimee Echo and the musicians performing and views of the crowd reacting from the floor. Rather than building a separate narrative, it presents the song as a charged concert moment, emphasizing the group's new-wave-influenced rock sound, Echo's commanding stage presence, and the connection between the band and its devoted audience.

Factoids & Trivia

  • The video was filmed at the Whisky a Go-Go in Los Angeles on June 12, 2001.
  • TheSTART announced the filming location to fans only eight days beforehand. Fans then used the band's online forums to coordinate a shared dress code: white shirts and black ties.
  • The coordinated outfits became visible in the audience, making the crowd look like an intentional part of the video's visual design.
  • "Gorgeous" was the only single released from theSTART's 2001 album "Shakedown!"
  • The song received rotation on MTV2 and became a minor radio hit for the Los Angeles band.
  • The video captures theSTART during its brief major-label period with Geffen, before the band parted ways with the label in January 2002.
