Yeah, it is like the 'In A Funny Way' video. But I liked that video and song, and I like this too. A little underwhelmed to begin with, but Conceived has really grown on me.
Score = 0
Also that Tom Vek video with the woodland creatures. Muppets = big in '06.

those aren't real Muppets...don't toy with me, Scott.

Not real Muppets, no. What's the non-Henson term to use in this case? I suppose "puppety oddballs" (from the Mr. Show sketch 'Altered States of Druggachusettes') could've worked.

goodness...music video budgets sure have shrunk.

That just deflated my hopes for the new Beth Orton record. oh well.

Did Beth Orton cover Leaving on a Jet Plane at some point? Trying to remember who did...
