I pulled out this album for the first time in a long time the other night and came across this video for the first time. There is a peculiar quality about the puppet that saves the video from being mere gratuitous artistic creepiness, though there is an element of that, or abstraction--the incongruity of a detached yet confused puppet singing to the backdrop of an unfolding tragedy--and rather elicits an investment on some level in the video while you're watching it, which is a lot more than most videos do. Doesn’t hurt that the song is good too.
