I saw this (or similiar) video of this on Youtube a while back and thought it was the creepiest thing I'd ever seen there. I found it quite disturbing.
I asked my wife to watch it. Her response was "Don't ever show me anything like that again..." It clearly upset her.

I too thought it was weird and creepy; however, being a jazz lover, I think the song is beautiful.
If you click on the song, It Amazes Me, in the right column of the attached site, you can hear the full lyrics:

Also, here is info about the makers of this "street marionette"

Default I enjoyed it from the perspective of what it took and takes

to accomplish such an event.

The innocent mind of a child would only see a giant puppet.

Us adults have way to much accumulated clutter in our minds that only serves to impair the real perceptions intended.

Well, I must have the mind of a child, because I saw a giant puppet. It wasn't creepy to me. The puppeteers walked her through a park full of people, who clearly enjoyed the experience. To see that in person would be amazing. Thanks for sharing.

I agree.
I must admit, the video did creep me out a bit, but I was so enamored by the music as well as I was wondering "how did they do that?"!
I am surprised no one has commented on the beautiful song (only a brief part of the song, You Amaze Me).
