Hail To The Feebles

Another film/album synchronicity....

Film: Meet The Feebles
Album: Hail To The Thief (Radiohead)

Album starts from track 6 'Where I end and you begin' (as usual). It repeats, and the film may also repeat as there is quite a bit on the album which doesn't immediately line up, for example the song 'Myxamatosis' doesn't line up with the scenes where the rabbit thinks he has myxamatosis.

Since scenes from music videos often appear in films and TV shows when that song plays, it was the song 'There there' that made me try this, as the music video is full of puppets, and so is the film.

Overall I'd say the original soundtrack is more entertaining though, but the synchronicity with the album is quite excellent in places. For example from 'I will'...

"I won't let this happen to my children,
meet the real world coming out of your shell.
With white elephants, sitting ducks,
I will rise up.
Little baby's eyes..."

This plays during the scene where the elephant meets his baby child (who presumably hatched out of a shell) which is half elephant and half white chicken. When the lyrics repeat "Little baby's eyes" the worm looks at the baby and says, "It's got your eyes, Sid!"

The song plays for a second time when the elephant and his baby appear again.
