Take me somewhere nice

The moment I heard the song "Take me somewhere nice" by Mogwai, I fell in love with it. The illustration, the whole concept of berating/being under water fascinated me. It reflected that we are surrounded by a lot of superficial and mundane things. Everyday you go through it and try to survive it. How do you survive all that? By looking for an escape? Or by being ignorant? 

Here I have tried to give a psychedelic effect to add more drama to the illustration.



Here's the video..


Mogwai - Take me somewhere nice


"No Surprises" by Radiohead and "Be quiet and drive" by Deftones also have a similar concept. I hope these songs take you to your safe place.
