SoaD - Lonely Day: a Pink Floyd: WYWH Reference"

I watched Lonely Day music video by System of a Down, and I noticed something that could be a reference to album art WYWH. In the glass reflection at the beginning of the song you can clearly see two men shaking hands, and one of them appears to be burning!

See here...

...or am I just being paranoid???

If you're paranoid, then so am I because I see it too.

It is it looks like they shaking hands and the guy is on fire never knew System liked PF by the way SOAD is a good band.

INDEED IT MIGHT BE, but if u want references, check out the video by WOLFSMOTHER, MINDS EYE, its totally a POMPEI rip off, HARD CORE, like scene for scene

Yeah. And the guy in the right ("I was in the right!") is leant forward, exactly as on the cover of WYWH album. Also, a few moments later in the Lonely Day video, they show a shopping cart on fire, and the alley in which it moves is almost exactly like the street in which are the two men on WYWH cover (i don't have the picture since I'm only able to surf with my audio drivers disabled, and when they are disabled I can't watch videos, but if you watch closely you'll see). Creepy.

well i have heard a live system of a down version of goodbye blue sky so they must be relatively into floyd if they pay tributes to them at gigs

I heard their version of Snowblind. It made my tummy feel bad.

Was it good?

Ok, definitely similar imagery, even though the "homage" image seems to have the fire BEHIND the guy on the left (reflected right) - and it would indeed seem to be a reflection since the men appear to be shaking their left hands, let alone the reflection of the female pedestrian in the same window.

SoaD (or the video producer/director) have gone to some trouble to create the familiar tableux so they must be fans.

Rock on? Floyd on!

p.s. The "street" on the original appears to be a road on a movie studio backlot with the various sound stages either side. Did the burning shopping cart on the SoaD vid appear in an identical setting?
