I agree!! She actually looks like she means what she's singing which is to be applauded in my book, even if the lyrics are a tad empty. The close-up shots remind me a bit of 'Nothing Compares to You' - tho not much can compare to that song and vid...
I'm so glad that not all of our popstars are totally airbrushed into plastic. Long live real unmoisturised faces on screen!!
The video also reminds me of A-ha's "Take on Me", where the singer is in a comic book (as opposed to a plasticine world, like this one) and comes to a dire end. And I believe she's Scandinavian as well, so it's very fitting.
