Thanks for watching the animated music video for "Here Come the Lucky Ones". β¨
A colourful paper world twists, turns and transforms in unexpected ways, in part 2 of 2. After The Captain gets fed up of the internet and presses the βescβ key, we find the pink-haired Roberta running away from the digital overwhelm realm and through moving animated scenes, featuring puppets, paper shapes, snow globes and motorway services signs.

Falling somewhere between Bet Lynch, David Lynch, Laurie Anderson and Gerry Anderson, with polite nods to Toyah, Amanda Lear, Siouxsie, Alison Moyet and Sparks, Roberta Fidora is a musician, amateur biography writer and person of disinterest based at the bottom of the UK (previously releasing music under the moniker CURXES) whose output has incorporated everything from broadcasts in dark forests and giant dancing bear puppets to depressed budgerigars, abandoned rocket testing sites and human taxidermy displays, getting shout-outs from the likes of MOJO magazine, The Independent, The Guardian and BBC6Music along the way. She has also contributed to the field recording project Cities & Memory, with the track Huygens appearing on the accompanying CD to Electronic Soundβs special field recording issue, as well as numerous other electronic/electroclash/synthpop releases which can be found on her website: https://www.robertafidora.com.

Guess itβs alright for some
A game of glass
To βwinβ at art
But what of extractive grifts
Bottling magic tricks
To sell illusions
You can hold
Who did you think youβd be?
And could you relate to me?
And does it matter?
Everythingβ¦
β¦grows older then it dies
So you can take the lot
I give it willingly
I hope it makes you happy
But I suspect it will not
