Music video

Two music videos have been made for this song, both of which can be found on the deluxe edition of Silent Shout. One depicts an early 20th-century or late 19th-century family, presumably one in a British Colony in Asia. The second video depicts a day in the lives of a family of mice, who have built a fairly comfortable house behind a wall in a human house. It uses stop-motion animation.
