Name of video with female diver?


Hi I've been looking for the title of a certain video for ages which was on chilloutzone two or three times in around 1999/2000..and everytime, MTV forgot showing the title.
The video features a female sports diver jumping into a swimming pool by night and the music is a slow pianotune.
Hopefully someone knows the name of this song/ artist
BIG THANX

Hi!

I think you may be looking for this one:

BIG BIG THANX!!! YOU'RE MY HERO! It's been 12 years that I'd been looking for the title of this video. In the last days of real MTV Europe they were neglecting Chillout Zone and didn't even write the titles of the videos any more.
Good old MTV Europe of the 90ies, I miss it (Well not all of it..during the day it was quite crappy as everything, but in the evenings it was great.. Partyzone, Chilloutzone, Postmodern etc..

My pleasure! emoticon

Well, I'm pretty sure we all miss the old MTV Europe! It was so radically different - and obviously much, much better - than what we're getting these days...

I remember there used to be quite a lot of missing titles back in the late '90s, but I wouldn't say they were neglecting Chill Out Zone - not until 2001, at least. The missing titles in 1998/99 were mainly due to the fact that MTV Europe had just switched to automatic graphics (titling, logos, etc.). For the first time in the channel's history, straps were no longer pre-recorded on music videos, as you may remember, but it seems that not everything was 100% ready yet, as the new system wasn't always working properly during the first few months! :-)

Oh how I loved the large colored title bars
on the videos, they really gave MTV it's identity..

Thanks for the kind words, much appreciated!

You're right, that video used to air without titles on MTV Germany back in the day, so I'm all the more glad that the mystery's been solved, at last! emoticon
