It just took me by surprise when I watched it initially based on what I had read. I saw an article on billboard and hadn't read these threads so I was expecting a live video performed on a harbour, and I saw a mimed performance in front of a green screen.
The band/Jon deliver so many letdowns nowadays.

I see what you're saying. There's a few shots here and there that are questionable. But it also fights like a logistics, lighting nightmare to get the light from the sun right with the band footage.
To me it feels like they had a pre-recorded track they mimed to a bunch of times as the sun rose and edited it together but I'd love to know for sure.
