► amzn.to (Please watch video in HQ) A cover of the Pet Shop Boys song, by Keane’s Tom Chaplin. ABOUT THIS MUSIC VIDEO: After hearing Tom Chaplin’s cover of this song, I heard it in my head as if it were from over 70 years ago, so I remixed and edited it as such. Complete with vinyl noise, skips and scratches. I then took archival, public domain footage from the period of 1935-1940s and tried to find imagery that would be dominant at the time period, with a bittersweet tone. You can find the original video on the official Keane YouTube Channel here: youtube.com “Your Funny Uncle” is a 1989 B-Side to the single “It’s Alright” from the 1988 Pet Shop Boys album “Introspective”. The original song only appears as a bonus track on the single release. The audio of this video was remixed, by me, taken from a video of Tom Chapin, lead singer of Keane playing the song solo on piano.

Pet Shop Boys – Your funny uncle
A windy day The cars in slow formation Not far away A final destination One mother’s son His father’s distant gaze, regretting Where they went wrong He always found it too upsetting Me and my friend We lived our lives completely From start to end You and your friend, so sweetly With strength and pride In spite of everything, and swimming Against the tide To obstinately hope of winning And at the end Your funny uncle staring At all your friends With military bearing And stopped to stand To smile and speak of you directly Goodbye, shake hands Like you did everything correctly To wipe away the tears No more pain, no fear No sorrow or dying No waiting or crying These former things have passed away Another life begins today
