St. Vincent – Marrow

Click on the turntable on the left to listen to a continuous stream of music featured on Pretty Much Amazing - updated every day. For more, you can check out the Best Songs of 2012.

The video for ’s “Marrow” is one of the great instances when a music video adds to the listener’s appreciation for every moment of a song. The beautiful contrast of Annie Clark’s soft and sensitive yet eerie and bizarre verses with her energetic chorus is displayed perfectly in this music video.

After watching, it will be hard not to picture the middle class family, construction workers, crazy teenagers, and cops jolting back and forth during the chorus. Annie’s control over her followers during the video perfectly shows her grasp of any listener on her wonderful album Actor.

I love, love, love St. Vincent & Actor. Marrow is probably my favorite song off the album and this probably my favorite video of the year.
