The Wicked Game video is both sexy, and yet, depressing.

I think of the movie "Swept Away".

For a time, and because of circumstance, a man has the attention of a beautiful woman (Mariangela Melato 1974/Goldie Hawn 2002/Helena Christiansen video) because they are on a desert island.

But after, they are "rescued" and the social order imposes itself on the couple. She goes back to her rich husband, he to his menial job. Love doesn't triumph. Hierarchy rules.

In the end, maybe he got the better end of the bargain:

One correction: The guitar tag on Wicked Game isn't slide guitar, it's done with a tremolo, and a nice amount of delay. That's whats on the recording, but you can also bend the string to achieve a similar effect.
