More Gotye, More Animation

I have to apologize here for my slight obsession with Gotye's music videos.  This is just another one that I find very worthwhile in its sincerity and power:


Well, this freeze-frame may be a bit of an unsettling image to start with.  The disjointed, grotesque figure that the video begins with progresses toward completing and building itself as he sings about the healing relationship he has with this person.  When their hands finally touch, you get an incredible feeling for the connection between them.  It's powerful imagery which I would argue does greater justice to the song than a live-action video would.
