"I'm Like A Lawyer (Me And You)" Video Review
Fall Out Boy might be running a little dry on hits, with this being the fourth single from their Infinity On High album, but 'I'm Like a Lawyer with the Way I'm Always Trying to Get You Off (Me & You)' should keep the emo clans satisfied a little longer while Wentz and co prepare to head back to the studio.
While it may have a title grammatically nightmarish enough to match 'Thks Fr Th Mmrs' and 'This Ain't A Scene, It's An Arms Race' in the sub-editing horror stakes, it lacks the punch and sheen of the earlier releases. Stump's strained vocal stylings don't suit the softer tempo of the track, while the tune is just a little too snoozy and whiny to be listened to repeatedly.
According to Billboard, the band shot the video for the single in Uganda after having performed their first show in South Africa.
The plot focuses on the lives of two children from Uganda, who fall in love and work hard to be able to go to school. But one day, their village is raided, and the young boy is taken. Then enters a section of the video without music, where the child in the rebel camp escape. As the boy returns home the music starts playing again (the bridge) and the two reunite. The video ends with a message saying that there are still thousands of children soldiers who have not returned to their family. In this video, apart from the scenes with the children, there are only a few shots of the band, much less than in prior videos. All the members are given more or less equal camera time, and obviously this video is not about them but rather the children.
