Agnes Obel reveals video for ‘Golden Green’ – premiere. The track appears on Obel’s upcoming album Citizen of Glass. Mew vocalist Jonas Bjerre, who directed the video, says: « I was honored to take on the task of making a video for this beautiful song. « The bells that emphasize the rhythm through the song, for some reason they made me think of blinking lights, and glass – glass being a recurring theme in Agnes’s new songs.

« As she told me more about the song, I started having ideas for some kind of internal world, maybe a world inside someone’s head, where various thoughts and feelings are in opposition, depicted as animated versions of Agnes, struggling to find harmony. »
