Yes, very VB feel, both in form and content

Then the world would not be enough, but points to this video for having the better plot.

So, I haven't been able to stop singing and watching this for days.
Ninian Doff's other work is of a similarly stupendous quality but a very different tone.

Oooo

This video far outstrips the song, which I couldn't even get through on the radio last night.

Their songs grow on me strangely. My reaction to Miike Snow is always "I don't like that... okay, time to listen to it 20 times in a row."

Multiply by about 3 and that's basically my reaction to kyarypamyupamyu. Every. Single. Time.

I'm going to see Miike Snow fairly soon and had not heard this yet, yay!

I am in love with this video, have been watching it over & over all day, after seeing this Daily Dot article (via hellotailor.tumblr) about it.

The fan-vid version using Daniel Craig & assorted Bond villains is well done too, but I am so shmoopy over gold-nosed scarface dancing Bond now.
