Radiohead - There There

Radiohead - "There There"
From Hail to the Thief(2003)

The video for Radiohead's "There There" was inspired by Bagpuss, a British TV show for children. It features frontman Thom Yorke in a forest, where he is stunned to encounter woodland creatures engaged in activities he never expected to see in species other than human beings.

In 2003, "There There" won Best Art Direction in a Video at the MTV Video Music Awards.

Good tune. Thom is a great vocalist but a poor actor. lol

The forest in this video reminds me of the 'Suicide Forest' in Japan. Have you ever heard of it?

If you get a chance Google Aokihadara Suicide or check out the 21 minute documentary on You Tube. It's both creepy and sad.

This video you posted reminded me of it immediately.
