The Song:
Electro-funk weirdness, using
Aphex Twin's semi-
trademark inhuman wailing to provide the melody. There is a
French voice sample near the end, "
J'aime faire les croquettes au chien", which roughly translates as "I like to make
croquettes for the dog".
I believe I can hear samples of both
Björk's voice and the
ICQ "uh-oh" incoming message sound elsewhere in the song, but that's very likely to be my imagination.
The video:
Directed by
Chris Cunningham. A sunny
Californian-looking
seaside setting. Features an unusually long pre-song intro with much
posturing a la
rap video.
alcaron: I believe the French expression is '
leche-vitrine', the explanation being that one looks through windows at things for sale/other people's things.
