Two boys, two worlds

MTV Exit paired up with the British band Radiohead to create this music video on child labor. Strikingly simple, "All I need" portrays a day in the life of two boys who occupy very different worlds, comparing them side by side with a split screen. The similarities between them make their radically different circumstances all the more apparent.



"I'm the next act, waiting in the wings
I'm an animal trapped in your hot car
I am holidays that you choose to ignore

You are all I need, you're all I need
I'm in the middle of your picture
Lying in the reeds

I am a moth who just wants to share your light
I'm just an insect trying to get out of the night
I wanna stick with you, because there are no others

You are all I need, you're all I need
I'm in the middle of your picture
Lying in the breeze

It's all wrong, it's all right
It's all wrong, it's all right
It's all wrong, it's all right
It's all wrong, it's all right
It's all wrong, it's all right"
