All right, I'll try to describe this video (which I've now seen several
more times).  The mood is one of lazy action, with lots of scenes of
slowly revolving objects.  There are three types of scenes spliced
together.  One is in color, with Jane lip-synching alone on a fairly 
bare set.  Another is in muted colors, with various people (not Jane)
in comfortable postitions -- sitting, lying on a bed, laughing, etc.
Many of these scenes are taken with the camera spinning slowly.
Finally, for the parts where Jane sings something like "I'll pull
for you, you'll pull for me," Jane, a guitar player, and an accordian
player are all sitting around a kitchen table, and the whole scene 
(people, chairs, table) revolves while the background remains fixed.
This scene is again in full color.


In all scenes where Jane appears, she is lip-syncing.
