Cat Solen's video for 'Soul Meets Body' is now posted online on the directions site. Cat previously has done videos for Bright Eyes and Cake.

Her entire video was shot all across the US on Thanksgiving day.

I had to manually do a refresh on the page on my browser to get it to play instead of Paul's so try that if it doesn't work.

Reminds me of the Soul Meets Body music video, except the forests are a little less magical, the cabins are a bit more roomy, and there are babies drinking booze.

really cool. It was like watching the faded memories of childhood slideshows.

can't listen... as i'm at school, but i think i can fill in the missing sound in my own head... heehehe...

yeah, but good good... me likes loads and can't wait to get home to put it all together...

should i make the kids listen??

just go to DeatCabForCutie.com...

it was ok. i liked it better than the first one. but it is still pretty basic and the standards weren't met seeing as though this isnt a amatuer movie thing or anything. cat solen is lucky that there is such damn good music behind it.

the last quarter of the video was okay, but the rest was pretty lame. there really wasn't any direction in the video, just random shots, and it felt pointless.

the shots from this video in the preview were the only things i felt would be sketchy.

I thought it was pretty darn sweet. It seemed kinda family-oriented, and I liked how some of the shots went with the lyrics...though others have said they dislike that at times (i.e. Ben, etc.) I liked how the date they showed in the beginning was my b.-day last year ("Turkey Day," like every seven yrs.)

"duh" it was family-oriented, it was "T. Day" (hehe)

I definitely liked the Marching Bands video more - I don't know if I'd say the Soul Meets Body video was terrible, but I was disappointed. I can see where the concept is at, I just don't really like it.

I'm still waiting for you to learn Cat Solen's proper gender

hahaha. Transpacifism how's your one man play 'broke back mountain' going ?

it wasn't brilliant. but it was ok...i was hoping for better.

i liked the way you like saw the corn field, then the shot moved to sombody elses greener field with a deer...then it moved somewhere else with a deer mounte don the wall.
then you see a sofa, then the shot moves to a trashed sofa outside...the hand on the trolly and then the hand leaning on a post etc etc

i liked the way it all fit together like that. showing that on special days like that, people all over are getting together. and just being together really
