Lightly pervsome video clip ahoy

  • March 9, 2007
  • Popjustice

Lezzing up, dry humping and numerous costume changes: it's Friday morning at Popjustice HQ the new Dragonette video for 'I Get Around':

Study notes:

» It is a song about slagging it around town, saying yes when you ought to say no (hence cryptic lyric "I say yes when I ought to say no") and generally lording it up in the bedroom. 

» The song does take AGES to get going but like a lot of the tracks on the album (eg the amazing highlight 'Take It Like A Man') rewards a bit of patience.

» You know in the video? Despite all the frocks and PVC, she sort of looks best in the hoodie, doesn't she? 

» The song keeps making us think of that "I get a round Tetley teabag in my cup" advert The Beach Boys ripped off in the 80s.

» They're doing a showcase in London on Monday and are giving away some tickets here. The label are paying for it (no doubt with 'The Willis Millions') so expect CHANDELIERS, BOOZE and CANOPIES. Well that's what we're expecting anyway.

» There was something else but it's slipped our mind.
