Shared creative direction

Wagging Tongue is directed by the Sacred Egg, with creative direction by Corbijn. The archive page supplies a release date but no director field in the consulted text; the credit is supported separately by the contemporary release report. (Pitchfork)

Full checked archive directory

The date column records the year stated in the archive entry. It should not be automatically substituted for the single’s release year. Alternate versions remain separate. “Not supplied” means the consulted record did not give the credit; it is not a guess about authorship.

Additional later work

Before We Drown — 2024 — directed by Anton Corbijn. The consulted archive index did not contain a dedicated entry, so this is supported by the contemporary report instead. (Pitchfork)

Important version distinctions

Strangelove (1987) and Strangelove ’88 are different films with different directors. The archive also separates versions of Never Let Me Down Again, Behind the Wheel and World in My Eyes. An alternate mix, broadcast edit or different assembly should not automatically be counted as an entirely new directing commission.

Personal Jesus is a specific dating caveat: the official video entry states 1990, while the single was released in 1989. The table retains the archive’s value and the reference notes flag the mismatch. This is preferable to silently rewriting a source or allowing its metadata to overwrite the record’s chronology.

The directory checks credits and links; it does not claim that every hosted player has been playback-tested in every region. Use the source link if an embedded player is unavailable.
