When he heard 'Walking In My Shoes', Anton Corbijn's foremost remark was "I see nuns, with beaks, skating". He's the only one who did. Together with this bizarre image, his film saw Dave set in the foreground of an erupting volcano as a red bird-woman stalked across the scene. The promo also incorporated elements of the Hieronymous Bosch painting 'The Garden Of Earthly Delights' and extras with exaggerated or misshapen body parts were recruited whilst Alan, Martin and Fletch were filmed with their faces pressed against glass to twist and manipulate their own features. Alan commented...

"It was certainly one of Anton's more surreal promos and the actual filming was quite a different experience for us. I remember how odd it was being surrounded by all these people with every manner of deformity - especially at meal times. It brought a smile to my face standing next to a hunch-back, dressed like a gothic nightmare and hearing him ask the catering girls 'have you got any ketchup love?'"
