THE REVIEW

A lined sheet of paper, with a childishly drawn strip of land and a sky with some blue clouds.

In the background, you can hear the noise of the Jcb, the yellow construction site bulldozer, which appears shortly after with two stick-men with a curious "pill" shape that correspond to father and son.
The one who "sings the song" is indeed the son, who imagines his father as a superhero who, astride his Jcb, takes him around the world instead of bringing him to school.
Everything the boy says is visualized in the video in the form of a drawing, starting with a black car honking because it wants to pass but is blocked behind the Jcb that is taking up the road; then among the mountains, the school is seen, drawn as "Alcatraz," a T.REX can be seen peeking from a hillock, and finally, a mythical "Transformer," which transformed from a transport truck into a robot and in the video chases the yellow bulldozer, flying behind it.

When the rhythm of the song changes, the Jcb stops and then accelerates increasingly more and takes flight among the soft clouds inhabiting the white sky on the sheet, until it reaches the roof of the sky, where, like in a fairy tale, the façade of a yellow and red castle stands, where the Jcb stations before the video ends completely.

The video can be found and viewed on YouTube by simply searching "Nizlopi - Jcb song."

The band is an acoustic trio with a drummer, guitarist, and double bassist, rather young, who have chosen a genre that aligns with Country-Folk but does not disdain more blatantly Pop melodies, like the one proposed to us in the wonderful song I described here.
