While I think this is one of Moby’s best songs (though much of it musically is very reminiscent of “Southside”), the video is something else entirely. A crucial scene from Ang Lee’s “The Ice Storm” is re-imagined, but ends in a far sadder, grimmer way. While the concept may strike you at first as quirky in a bad way, stay with it. Yes, the storyline is predictable and has played out many times in all kinds of films, novels, and TV shows, but the use of people in animal costumes actually makes the climax more shattering and horrific for some reason I can’t put my finger on. One of the best music videos I have ever seen.
