Veramente carina, da ballare sull'aia dopo la vendemmia.
Video da premiare per l'originalità. Bravi davvero!

What a sweet little video! You are very talented.

[@beckstraordinary]

This is very beautiful.

[@christsbassist89]

Brilliant.

[@KnittingNinny]

The point if you listen to the words of the song is all she did all day was sit and sew. That's it. Fun to watch, I enjoyed it.

[@MrKabDrivr]

Why thumb you down?? You are entitled to your opinion, and you do it in a respectful fashion... Not like some other ppl, I might add! Actually, I thumb you up just because of that!...

[@kvlach89]

[@LaBellaRosa]

[@MidiPunk]

[@songOmatic]

[@ShxpxRok]

good job i enjoyed it. five stars

[@MacCairnie]

Chuck Norris would need no strings to move a puppet. He could do it with the power of his mind.

[@tsjoencinema]

cool video

[@wsbarkerathmcom]

Naysayers, nobody asked! but anyway, sorry for being so judgemental, but I quite like it, nice and relaxing, background chillout. I like that it's traditional airs. I didn't watch the video much, but it looked interesting enough. Appawently the pwuppets vewy scawy

[@kraftymomma1979]

I like puppets and am artsy-fartsy, so, no, I didn't find it disturbing. BUT if a clown had popped out at some point, I would be running for my car right now. I suppose it's a matter of personal taste combined with early childhood experiences. The song is definitely beautiful.

[@rudyfoolish]

the stuff of MAGIC! *sigh*

[@Toralya]

I liked it, but the camera angles confused me a little occasionally.

[@kira1226]

wow that puppet was super creepy... but it knitted a kitten so yay!!!! ^_^

[@esoraleak]

Disturbingly beautiful. I applaud the artist. If you don't like it, don't watch it.

[@DigBreamer]

cool

[@Naudins]

His voice reminds me of Arthur Russell.

[@FeelingSaucey]

LOl this reminds me of 1 of tool's music video's rofl.

[@Rjax842]

nice video cool song. Dont worry about the haters. They ain't doing shite so they knock people that do.

[@Camimations]

am i the only one that found this mildly disturbing?

[@djwizzpixel]

There's nothing disturbing about the puppet surely. It's a sad creature, got no eyes, can't really work out what's going on around it. All it has is its music, so it makes a garment of it to protect himself. Simple story, well told. NEXT!

[@scirrhia_kruden]

..............i never even subscribed to this channel, but this video is in my subscriptions???????? wtf

[@kizpaws]

OMG, use your imagination; theres more out there than Barbie dolls... AND as for the "jaws wired shut" comment, perhaps you should clean out your ears. I liked the video and the song was a beautiful cover.

[@kira1226]

bahahaha lmao!!!!!! this comment made my day

[@yubisoulfitness]

Am I the only one who felt scared by the puppet?
if it had had another type of music, it would have been really creepy...

[@metaphysikz101]

very calming music....borders on boring i think lol....dunno....give it a listen when im sober tomorrow =P but right now i enjoyed

[@Maenad00]

That puppet looks more like a mummy or a zombie with its empty, blank eyes. It gives me the creeps.

[@AntiRushx2]

I like cookies

[@naenae2993]

2:20 looks like a tampon!!!!!!

[@TheWolfWithinMe]

creepiest puppets i've ever seen... srsly.
Not to say this is bad, it's just creepy. >.>

[@WoWanate]

I am so dumbfounded how this has such an awful up/down ratio.

[@mynameisKimyeah]

cool
but kind of scary...

[@psy008]

this is sorta creepy

[@WoWanate]

[@Ch5ActionNews]

terrible song, sounds like you're jaw is wired shut
and you cant just take two words that rhyme and use them over and over again for each verse. I quote:
"oh its already made,
trimmed in red,
dressed all around with a golden thread,
golden thread,
golden thread,
dressed all around with a golden thread,"
its like that through out the entire freaking song.
