Watch:
The Mountain Goats-Woke Up NewIt must be difficult making a video for The Mountain Goats, as the music itself is already charged with busy, personal lyrics and emotions balancing with the actual melody, but this video feels only fitting. The muted color scheme, deliberate but discreet editing effects add to give the video its charm. John Darnielle front view, singing to the viewer in parts of the video suits the song and his general style, and the camera in camera, recording in recording screens are rather neat to look at in any case. Although this probably isn't the most activity or fun filled video, it's just the sort to match the music and should be enjoyed.

Antville for the video refresher/catch up!)
