Music video

The music video was directed by Alex & Martin (best known for their work on the video for The White Stripes' "Seven Nation Army"), and is similar in style to the music video for Queens of the Stone Age's "Go with the Flow" except more colourful; it features animation made by rotoscoping the band members.
