Default XJS in Sam Smith Video

This song has been out forever, but I just saw the video for the first time.

The guy drives a BRG coupe.

Looks like Sinatra's car that was for sale forever (it's last big auction sale, was ahem, not well bought at a crazy figure).

Don't see too many BRG XJS', best color on the car IMO..

XJS is hands down one of the sexiest automobiles on the planet.

Um ,are you saying Sam Smith is "0" content? Really? Ok to each his own I guess

But more importantly, I posted the video because there is a Jaguar XJS featured in it. Don't get the ZZTOP or hod rod connection.

so true ,the two vids have almost no connection, and to each his own!
Smith is like crying and sad.

ZZ is about having fun and enjoying life!

the back land scape looks very much like Bonneville salt flats, been there couple times, you can see for miles and miles, run fast for miles and miles!

any good car guy should visit at least once in the life, a truly unearthly experience, when nobody else is around, super quiet, only your breathing, 6500ft altitude!

almost forgot Jaguar XJS are an encredible car (for the money spent), i got mine for nothing ,nada, no cost, then i put $30k usd into it, talk about controlling someone!!!!!

I remember years ago a one hit wonder boy band had an XJ-S in their video...no idea who. Whitesnake's Here I Go Again had a couple of XJs (and girls) and Sting had an S Type in one of his videos.

One of LLCoolJ's videos has a red XJS in it. I think he made mention in the lyrics - something about his rhyming being as smooth as the rack & pinion (steering) in a Jag.
