Music Video
The music video for "Flower" was directed by Mark Miremont. The black-and-white video features the band performing the song amid scenes of the band members wandering around a city. Released in late 1988, "Flower" was Soundgarden's first music video. The video was put into rotation on MTV's underground alternative music show, 120 Minutes, and subsequently helped the burgeoning Seattle grunge scene gain attention and garner exposure to a somewhat mainstream audience.

Famous quotes containing the words music and/or video:
“The man that hath no music in himself,
Nor is not moved with concord of sweet sounds,
Is fit for treasons, stratagems, and spoils.
The motions of his spirit are dull as night,
And his affections dark as Erebus.
Let no such man be trusted.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“These people figured video was the Lord’s preferred means of communicating, the screen itself a kind of perpetually burning bush. “He’s in the de-tails,” Sublett had said once. “You gotta watch for Him close.””
—William Gibson (b. 1948)
