I was looking for music for my livin' draws and Rachie very kindly put me on to Karmadillo, who very kindly allowed me to use some of their charango (hollowed out armadillo stringed instrument) music, which I really like and this song I particularly love, No One Else, really fitted the mood of this livin' draw.... so first watch the movie and read the words of the movie, then listen to the song, then go and look up Karmadillo, because they're splendid.  Also, if you want you can watch this full screen as it's high def.  There you are then.

That's very sad. Could she not have been recycled?

Of course there's reincarnation for the little chippies. Loved it, makes me smile and think!

This is beautiful Lucy. I usually try to come up with something to say that sums up how I feel without resort too much to cliche, but on this occassion I go with fantabulous.

Beautiful and sad. That's a bit like fast food isn't it?
P.S. Loved the music.

poignant and darkly beautiful.
I had a feeling of impending doom that Chip was going to end up as part of an IKEA self-assemble (is there any other way?) shelf set.
I don't know which is more upsetting

Ooh, I liked this so much I sent a link to my radio DJ boyf who I reckon would love Karmadillo enough to play them on his (local community) radio show!

The animation was also splendid. Lovely mix of pathos, humour, optimism, imagination, insight, cynicism, metaphor... all that guff and a lot more besides!
