Perhaps, to 'wake up' the other cigarette boxes
Also, the printed text on the Ant box reads "THE WRITING"S ON THE WALL", if anyone hasn't noticed. I was wondering about this, cause I couldn't read it, but on the YouTube HQ version it's quite readable.

maybe it represents another dream liam had
ok idea, great colouring, slow paced, but slowly it grows on me. i reckon the chopped movements are intentional.
Quote: Its a mixture of puppeteering and greenscreen stop motion animation.
edit: and yeah, just because liam said once that people should stop analysing their videos, a lot of people start shouting that it has no meaning and should be treated as such. fuck it, a lot of videos have some meaning, put there consciously or not. let them discuss it if they want to, instead of dissing them.
im gonna give the video another watch. see ya on the dancefloor, cheers!

And The Prodigy do not make their own videos - they hire someone to to them. Then Liam, Keith and Maxim probably watch the videos and say "ok" or "no" to them.
So... the people who actually make the videos of course put in some kind of a story and tries to make it relevant to the band. Therefore it makes sense to analyze the videos.
The only thing The Prodigy-guys themselves said was that people should find their own meanings in the music, the album-names, the tracktitles, the lyrics etc.
...and sometimes they've said that they don't really make music with other meaning than the power of the music being a hardhitting beast...
So for me it even makes sense to analyse the music. There's differen't ways of doing that of course. I do it the way I want to and you can do it in your way.
Personally I like to attach small stories I read in magazine interviews etc. to each song and album. I collect information about all the music I have from The Prodigy. That makes sense to me.
When I listen to the music I of course also get various images in my head - but that's my pictures to keep
So analyse all you want I say.

I guess that depends on how you see it...
- You can say it's pointless - you're in your right for sure...
- Some people however do these things all the time so for them it would make sense to do it with this one too.
- As a hardcore fan it also would make sense that you analyse a Prodigy-video rather than analysing a video by some other band.
So... I say let the people decide and let them do what they want as long as it doesn't hurt nobody else. Anyway I think a little thinking wouldn't hurt anybody

i think only information we have, is that the list of the remixes will we shown in this week. B-sides are another question, and to take in concideration that we will have Japan release, it will raise the chance to have at least
1 new tune with the single.

I think the video sums up the song perfectly:
It's a fun kind of renegade tune That takes control of your body you know? (ok perhaps some alcohol and drugs will heighten the sensation a touch) But fuck it that's what the prodigy is all about.
What does this video mean then? Why the fag packets?
To me it means the prodigy can effect the smallest of things you know? They get in there and inject that party atmosphere and it all kicks off, they leave you behind drained, drained of all energy. They force you to kep pushing yourself until you almost pass out. It's like they inject you with energy and I make sure I use every last bit of it, right up to the point your about to pass out! But fuck it out of space is about to kick in I've got some energy reserves in my big toe!
Wow where the fuck all that came from I'm not sure. Make of it what you will hahaha.
