Poor Leno
"Poor Leno" is the third single released by the Norwegian duo Röyksopp. It was released in December 2001 as the second single from the band's debut album, Melody A.M.. The vocals are sung by Erlend Øye. It is used in the sixth-generation video game SSX 3 as well as in The Drop, a short film displayed on the canopy at the Fremont Street Experience in Las Vegas, Nevada.
The single was released in 2001 as the second single from Röyksopp's debut album Melody A.M. and re-released in 2002. In the UK, the single reached #38 on the UK Singles Chart.
Directed by Sam Arthur, the music video revolves around a creature resembling a small man or boy in a bear suit, and unveils a story of the creature being tracked and captured from its natural habitat, to end up being caged in a zoo, longing to escape. The video, mainly animated, also features a few clips of live recordings with overlapping animation. Additionally, video footage of snowy mountains were sampled from the film adaptation of The Witches, a book by Roald Dahl. Because the lyrics include the words 'being 9 years old', the bearman in the clip can be taken to be dressed up boy or small man.
Several versions and remixes of "Poor Leno" were released:
