New clip from Baby Dayliner's sophomore album Critics Pass Away. A narrative music video about being the life of the party.

This is pretty cool. I love Baby D. any other vidz by this director?

         

Yes! I've been waiting for this one. It's awesome. Unpretentious, fun, nicely shot and conceptually cool. What more can we ask?

         

kinda interesting. I hated the way this video looked. It was so flat. I guess that look fits the tone of the video, but it just felt really amateurish. not in.

         

I love Baby Dayliner and I really loved this vid. Thanks for posting this one.

         

This all happens so fast. I wish the song was longer, but this vid gets a lot of story packed into such a short time without appearing cramped. Pretty weird and awesome :)

         

Great acting, great song. The flatness, amatureishness made me connect with it. If it'd been polished I would've been turned off. Baby Dayliner's vanity rides a fine line.

         

haha funny video. The joy machine huh?

         

I like the use of AE to pop things in this vid. There are some narrative problems, but over all I think this is pretty hot. Understated.

         

Check it out, Vincent Chase from HBO's Entourage came to the party.

Also, so did Feist.

         

The song and the video seem to work well together in a sort of home made, arts & craftsy sort of style. Not too over-blown and not too cerebral. There are a few videos that come out every now and again that just look like they were fun to make for everyone involved. That aspect always makes the video enjoyable to watch for me. This is one of those. There is a whole lot of story going on in there but the overall fun quotient kind of makes up for it.

         

liking this one very much. got an unpretentious vibe that we're looking for nowadays that every music video out there tries to one up the other in coolness.

         

I like the music very much - great lead vocal voice.

The video is really not up to much though. It is well shot, but it's conceptually still-born. As for the stylised multi-image wipes; well, they're borrowed from the Gondry of Let Forever Be.

         

this strikes me as altogether outsider art. interestingly ugly, vid, track & all.
