Music video

This is the first Regina Spektor song to have an accompanying music video. It shows Spektor climbing into a dark green room and unpacking an assortment of objects from a trunk, including a piano, rug, a globe, and some seeds, which she places on the rug and grows with water. The video contains some bizarre scenes, such as toy soldiers coming out of Spektor's mouth, and ends with her placing everything (including herself) into the trunk, which vanishes. It is notable for its heavy use of stop motion animation. A music video is a short film or video that accompanies a complete piece of music, most commonly a song. ...
