After exploring electro-trip-pop on her debut album and subsequently following up with a blissful folk sophomore album, Emiliana Torrini lands squarely into pop territory with equal ease on her third collection. This single, directed by Blackdogs's Price James, is perhaps the most upbeat of the bunch, propelling the tempo forward with a urgent bass guitar riff and an immediate melodic hook. Hand made jungle flora abound with a similar playfulness and hyperreality that seems signature to the Icelandic imagination. Watch the music video (qt).
