Story songs can be tough, because you still want the video to be unique, not necessarily just a literal, visual rehash of the story in the song, but you don't want there to be a total mismatch either.
Walking this line would be something like O Valencia - The Decemberists - where the story in the video is not exactly the same, but ends up the same. I adore this song, and while I don't love the video as much, I do think the video does a good job of mixing things up a little but not too much. And I like the use of titles.

"...As vinegar upon nitre, so is he that singeth songs to an heavy heart." Proverbs 25:20 (KJV)
This could be interpreted as bad - corrosive, acid; or as a good thing - effervescent, cleansing.
It probably depends on the song and the heart.
