I think it's not a video and just a doc with the concept.

Fair enough.  I was thinking of this video:

Is the video fan made?

No, it was the official video.  It was just never released

The video was supposed to be claymation/animated btw.

Is that why there's the red guy in the video that was made, but never released?  I remember Fernando blaming Lars, and Lars eventually publicly commenting "I have no idea what they're talking about".

I always thought it was one of those red things in the CD artwork: the red star and hand. Others said it was a little demon.

A long time ago the director told the story of the guy losing his love and trying to make a machine to turn into a bird. Sounded like it fit "This I Love" more than Better.

Sounds more like it fits Soundgarden's Never the Machine Forever .

I kind of like the videos were just in my mind. It wasn’t the MTV era, it was the leak era of the demise of the record industry. CD was the soundtrack to the end times, the hangover would have killed most humans.

The recomp told Axl not to do a video, or they wouldn’t fund it. So they made their own but didn’t have the channels to distribute because Azoff was busy setting up a reunion tour on the release of CD.
