mystery train.
This is quite bad and its worst offence is its editing; the visuals appear to have almost nothing to do with the music. The hairspray scene (prior to product placement) is kinda fun and I actually lol'ed at the eating-the-nuts scene at 3:40. The video needs way more of that brand of weirdness and way less of the sloppy editing kind.
The editing fine tune. I say so because there's a good video in there, just not the one we're seeing. Go back to the edit and fix it, yank this one and replace it. It's not uncommon.
The issues lie in the setup, the cutting doesn't reflect the images. And La Roux looks awkward, on jumpcuts. Who's Legs?
dont understand the need for this video, if the one that came out last year is perfectly adequate
let's give them the benefit of the doubt - maybe turnaround for editorial was like 3 hours...
First one was cool even though only showing her and the car with colors. Still a good song.

LEGS is a four-piece directing collective based in New York, who have worked with Diesel, L’Oreal, Diet Coke and other brands.
they did the latest goldfrapp - videos.antville.org
they also did the Florence and the Machine "dog days" remake that was nominated at the VMA's.
and this cool short film based on Iggy Pop's "I Wanna Be Your Dog".
this is like if David Lynch was forced to do a Target ad would look like.
