A Simple Request


I know it is usually Music Video Mondays but this had to be posted for a number of reasons:

1) both the video and, more importantly, the song are fantastic.

2) I may or may not have been in love with Fiona Apple in, like, the 7th grade or so.

3) this video was directed by Paul Thomas Anderson. For realsies. Look it up. The guy who directed this, and this, and this, and this upcoming one. How was I not aware of this? Is P.T. Anderson just a huge Fiona Apple fan (I'd get it) or does she have some crazy dirt on him? Does Maya Rudolph make him do it because she's home-girls with Fiona? I have a million questions about this artist-director relationship and I would watch a complete documentary on it. So, Mr. Anderson, please get crack-a-lacking on that documentary. Thank you sir and have a fantastic Memorial Day Weekend. I look forward to The Master and, as always, to making fun of Scientologists generally.
