    I get an obscene amount of joy from sending this to my younger brothers on their birthdays. I am thankful to TMBG and whoever made these puppets/perfect video.

    It lacks the power of the original but as it has puppets it's sort of even more brilliant.

    I am delighted to send this to people on their birthday. Every year-without fail. It's the knitted puppets, the gesticulations, and the black void with clocks. So completely entertaining. I wish there were more of these out there. If folks find anything similar... please share!
