I disagree.

Discogs says 23 May 1989, but I got my hands on it in late July / early August. I spent that summer in Texas doing field work, an hour away from the nearest city (Beaumont). I would drive in on weekends, and they had a Camelot Music in their mall. I bought the Substance VHS there. When I got back to the little town where I was staying I had access to a VCR, and it was the first time I'd seen most of those videos. I was absolutely blown away by The Perfect Kiss.
I went back to my home state in late August, before the Fall semester started, and I got Run 2 after my return. My local shop imported lots of stuff, so I got it the week of release or very shortly thereafter.

I would say the footage of the Hacienda the track was paired with originally counts as a video in as much as the track was not originally a single anyway. Not counting The Peter Saville Show Soundtrack either, which you could argue is in the same vein (music released on a single format though it was created for a different purpose).
Nope, Video586 ain't a boner fide NO single. It was released on a weird label when they weren't even talking to each other. let alone promoting. How the fuck could they have done a vid for 25 minutes of 'pap'? I know some ''''people'''' were bemoaning its omission from 'Singles', but could you honestly have sat through this bullshit in the midst of that clutch of classic early 45s? I'da been racing for 'skip' every fucking time. I'd say that by Item, all the songs had official vides, albeit some of them twenty years late, except Thieves Like Us ad Subculture.
