Attention please: Sebastien Tellier's 'Divine' (ahem) video is very brilliant

  • April 3, 2008

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vz58Hw9hldw

Like the song itself, Sebastien's 'Divine' clip is decept­ively simple, happily ridicu­lous and com­pletely brilliant.

One of the things we forgot to mention when we had 'Divine' as Song Of The Day earlier this week is that this is the song Sebastien's putting forward as France's entry for this year's Eurovision Song Contest. Whether it does well in the Contest or not, it's a great example of pop music which manages to mix Proper Artistic Ethicszzzz with a big fuckoff tune.

Well done to all concerned, etc.
