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:
“When we are in health, all sounds fife and drum for us; we hear the notes of music in the air, or catch its echoes dying away when we awake in the dawn.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“We attempt to remember our collective American childhood, the way it was, but what we often remember is a combination of real past, pieces reshaped by bitterness and love, and, of course, the video past—the portrayals of family life on such television programs as “Leave it to Beaver” and “Father Knows Best” and all the rest.”
—Richard Louv (20th century)
