Kei - Vesperbell


This song Vesper bell (which means evening bell), is sung by a Japanese artist Kei. Kei is the ex-guitarist of the two visual kei Japanese rock bands called Kannivalism and Baroque. 

This music video is very entertaining and gives a nostalgic feeling. In the music video, there are references to Alice in Wonderland where there is a rabbit that jumps into a mirror, and playing cards playing trumpets. The illustrations and pop up effects are also suited for children as if it was from a storybook. Even the scenery and backgrounds look very fairy tale like.

I like this music video because it is very different from visual kei and any type of rock. This video gives off a happy and safe feel, the same you felt as a child, the opposite of rock, which is rebellious and dangerous.
