Thoughts anyone?
Heres mine :
- Love that they finally did an upbeat video, reminds me a little bit of We've Got It Going On, but a more polished mature version..
- Nick + buzz cut = YES
- The one thing i didnt like was the theme. Seems like they sorta threw the whole vampire thing in there just to capitalize on the whole vamp mania thats been going on, and it didnt catch with me. I think i would have liked it more if they just had them on stage and the crowd dancing to them, but thats just me.

Well, I LOVED the choreography, but I thought that they would use the vampire thing more and I was confused by the girl, but after reading this, I kind of understand it more:
The video for Straight Through My Heart was filmed on August 7th and 8th of 2009 in downtown Los Angeles, California. It was released on August 27 on Us Weekly's website. [4] The introduction says, ‘'Day Walkers: A group who band together to protect innocent mortals or Kine against the Gentry: Vampires who hunt for prey at bars and nightclubs. Sometimes these hunters become, The hunted..’' After the introduction the song starts playing. A female vampire rides a motorcycle up to a nightclub and walks inside. The Backstreet Boys are performing inside the club. The vampire begins to hunt for victims as the Backstreet Boys start to sing. Just before the climax of the song, Nick notices that the vampire has a victim. At the climax, water, presumably holy water, pours down from the ceiling onto the crowd. This scares the vampire and Nick reaches out to her. He leads the vampire, with Brian, AJ, and Howie behind them, into another room. They lock the doors and open another one, throwing the vampire outside into the sunlight. This destroys her. After destroying the vampire, the group walks out into the sun, revealing their enlarged eye teeth and red eyes.
I thought that it was a step-up from the last few videos : )

I like it, but I feel a little let down that we were teased with those pics of the guys as vampires... when we only got like ONE shot of each of them that way at the end. I get the concept, and it was a nice try at a twist ending, with the whole daywalkers thing, but I would have much rather they switched that around and had the Boys stalking people as vampires the whole video, instead of the lesbo vamp chick LOL. After about a minute of watching her, I was like, okay, when is she gonna change the guys? Let's go already! And it never happened LOL.
Still, it's a big improvement over the last three videos, which were each lamer than the one before them. I've still only watched the Helpless When She Smiles video ONCE... and I'm not sure I even watched till the end LOL. Inconsolable and I Still I've only seen a couple of times. This one I'll at least watch again.

Yeah, it bugged me that they showed the girl so much. I wish they would have shown the boys more for longer periods of time. That was the main thing that bothered me. In that aspect, I liked the standing still vids more. But I did like the whole idea of it all.

I was resitant with the whole vampire thing from the very start. It's like they are trying to fit in too much. But anyways. I like the video, I suppose. But it's cheezy and let me down a little bit. The video just completely went nowhere! It was just them dancing (though, at least they are doing something!) and shots of the lesbian vampire lol. Even SHE wasn't doing anything! Anyways, I hope the next video is better (whenever that comes out) and I havn't completely lost hope in them.... so, the album better be banging.
