Madeon continues to challenge pop norms in his new 'You're On' live video

  • March 26, 2015

Madeon

It's been a turbulent week for pop what with Rihanna's eyebrows and Zayn being sacked from Top Gear, but prepare to suspend your disbelief because Madeon is about to turn the pop world com­pletely on its head.

How will he do this? Well, you know how artists signed to major labels churn out endless, totally unne­ces­sary and fre­quently awful video #content when they have records out? Usually involving the act doing a less-good version of their song in a 'live' setting? Good old Madeon's made something that's actually really good. It looks like it's not going to be really good for a few seconds, but then it is really good. It features Kyan, who's certainly changed since his time in Westlife.

BEHOLD:

Amazing.
