What's the Use of Won'drin'? -Amanda Palmer & Vermilion Lies-

To view this video in the highest (much better) quality, please go to http://vimeo.com/2621242

This video was shot, in one take, on December 14th at the Great Dickens Christmas Fair in San Francisco. I had wanted to do a project with my friend, the director Jenessa Joffe, who I went to college with at Wesleyan. Then the Vermillion Lies girls showed up and it got even better.

It's set to "What's the Use of Won'drin'?" (featuring Annie Clark of St. Vincent) as it appears on "Who Killed Amanda Palmer".

Merry everything
Long live the punk cabaret!

Love,

[HelloAbby]

what a difference HD makes!

A friend of mine sent me a spastic txt message saying "AMANDA WAS AT DICKENS HERE LOOK" and sent me this link. Of course it's from three years ago. lol. I'm sort of shocked I didn't see people I know who work Dickens anywhere. will have to look closer. cool video made me feel warm and fuzzy and miss my wayward friends

[LittleMissMoose]

wow. love this video. i knew there'd be a sick twist.

[okukbill]

Amanda only sings songs with an ironic twist, and this is double ironic. The sentiment is 180 degs out of phase with her thinking and most modern women's thinking so they very gently send it up. But wow, how they send it up, while their voices do great homage to the music. As a man born in the forties, there is part of me that would enjoy it if women still felt that way to men. But thank god they don't!!

Zoe, Kim and Amanda are great together... I'd like to see them actually collaborate on a song.
