Speaking For Trees
(2004)
Cat Power
Label: Matador
Duration: 18:17
Genre: Rock
In principle, the idea behind this video actually intrigued me; it's in the execution where it falls short. The thing that bothered me most: the crickets (background noise) and wind were often louder than Chan. While perhaps that might have been the intention to let some of nature's elements play a part, it doesn't work, as it washes Chan out too much. Chan is also shot at quite a distance, and even on my 36" tv, you can barely make her out. Again, I'm sure it is as intended, but it doesn't work well.
Haven't heard the CD yet, but most folks will be buying this for the DVD.
