It's a classic 80s video. Just thought the whole "shock" thing might not be your thing right now after your son's incident, but it doesn't sound like he needed to be "shocked" back to life.
The song isn't about an actual monkey. It's about living life and "shocking" yourself into moving forward, not being afraid, etc.
Gotta love Peter Gabriel. This, and Solsbury Hill,
www.youtube.com/watch are why he was/is amazing, IMHO.
