Post Plain White Backgrounds
I don't think I'm the only one that has noticed this: why does it seems that a lot of the pillows' PVs feature white backgrounds? Noodles also fancies this. I know it's probably nothing and that I'm overthinking this, but it just sparked a thought

It's more like "musicians also fancy this."

White is a nice, clean color that shifts the focus of the viewer to the subject. It is a good choice for these PVs because they don't want you to pay attention to the anything else besides the band when they are playing. For example, in Pied Piper, the "amusement" portion is the part with the puppet and Sawao making it sing. Then, you have the band just playing, at the chorus, when you would hope the focus would be on the band.

I'M A JESUS MAN
HOW'S YOUR TV DONG
I WANT TO CHERISH THIS PLATE
OH I WANT TORRID MAN
I'M A HEAVY GIRL
HOW'S YOUR TV DONG
EVERYONE ENJOYS A LAP
THORNY'S SO ABU AT THAT[/quote]

Would you rather have a "What's your favorite X from Y?" thread?

Would you rather consume hemlock or diarrhea?

Is there anything to distinguish the pillows/noodles' use of this motif from other artists? What's the significance?

Fact: I don't care what anyone's favorite top ten songs or albums are. I just don't care.
