All rights for this song & video belong to Matt Mahaffey, Self & Sponge Bath Records. I am not profiting off this, I am just a fan who couldn't find a good copy of this video online and wanted to provide it to other fans.

Always trust an album where every song gets its own imaginary 7" cover.

They only played this song on the radio a few times on my local radio station, but I was lucky enough to be at home with my stereo at age 15 and managed to record it to blank cassette tape. A gem this is

When I was in high school, I never had enough money to be rolling into record stores and buying full retail price CDs... so I went to a pawn shop, and they had this huge bin of CDs, lots of them "For Promotional Use Only" discs (it was right next to a radio station, I presume someone sold discs to them after the station was done with them?). I'd grab any that looked interesting by song titles or artwork and see if I could discover something good. That's how I found Self and got a copy of Subliminal Plastic Motives. I've been listening to it for decades and it's still damn fun music. Had no idea they ever made any music videos!

I just heard "what a fool believes" on the radio. This is quality music that i'm glad i stumbled on. Sometimes music will sit a while, then fans will catch on. 👍
