    "comment": "Of this track, Ian McCulloch explains, \"It's about the way people would sooner look at statues than themselves. We revere things that tell us about ourselves. It's that thing of how we think art is very important. A life without art, who knows what that would be like? We think the Mona Lisa is this thing that's valuable, when something else isn't.\"\n\nAnton Corbijn directed the video, which contains many abstract images, including an anthropomorphic unicorn. Corbijn also did the videos for \"Lips Like Sugar\" and \"Bedbugs And Ballyhoo.\" https://tinyurl.com/2s3h3kj5\n\nEcho & the Bunnymen are playing in Seattle on May 12th 2026 @ Showbox SoDo!
