Yeah, their version is definately a lot more of a modern pop sort of take on it with the melody reworked quite a bit and way more going on than in the original. The intention with the production between the two seem to be the complete opposite of one another (Flowers & co.'s obviously being the more high-tech and cleaner sounding of the two). I really like it though, especially the last minute or so of the song.Quoting MadMan (view post)
The clips in the video from Control that are cut in seemed more like just a tie-in to Corbijn's film to me more than anything of too much meaning. I'm not sure though if Corbijn did the "Shadowplay" video as well, I know he did the "All These Things..." one and all of the Sam's Town artwork.
