The Avalanches - Frankie Sinatra

In reply to a video comment thread
The video (linked, of course, because I'm loth to embeds)

I heard this track first on the radio, so I knew ahead how mischievous the song was. But before I even saw the video (first time today), then every time I listened to it, I always imagined a travelling carnival of rogues and creeps, à la Carnivàle (which tv series I haven't seen yet either), along with Baz Luhrmann's "Moulin Rouge!", and a fair amount of Tim Burton's film/art, such as "Big Fish", "Batman Returns", and "Batman Forever".

The plot of the video is something of a mix of anything Stephen King would write, and what Tim Burton would readily direct.
