The 3 videos for Burning Bridges with their simplicity in showing a phonograph playing takes me back to my teens where that is exactly how my music listening was done. I'd sit and listen while watching the record spin and read the lyrics on the liner sheet. It keeps the focus on the songs and the visuals in your head.
