Este vídeo de Peter Bjorn & John tiene silbidos muy pegadizos, del estilo de los del Love generation de Bob Sinclair, pero el estilo de canción es distinto, menos bailable, pero no por ello dejarás de silbarlos al acabar de oír la canción. El videoclip está hecho como una historieta animada (personalmente el estilo del dibujo no me acaba de convencer, pero la idea sí).
Peter Bjorn & John es una banda sueca de indie formada por tres personas, a pesar de lo que pueda parecer por el nombre. Para esta canción contaron con la colaboración de Victoria Bergsman, del grupo The Concretes, que es la voz femenina que se oye. Lo cierto es que esta canción no es ningún gran descubrimiento por mi parte, salió segunda en la lista de mejores singles de NME, pero llevo oyéndola una temporada y cada vez me gusta más.
La letra encaja bastante bien con la historia que cuentan en el videoclip:
if i told you things i did before
told you how i used to be
would you go along with someone like me
if you knew my story word for word
had all of my history
would you go along with someone like me
i did before and had my share
it didn’t lead nowhere
i would go along with someone like you
it doesn’t matter what you did
who you were hanging with
we could stick around and see this night through
and we don’t care about the young folks
talkin’ bout the young style
and we don’t care about the old folks
talkin’ ‘bout the old style too
and we don’t care about our own faults
talkin’ ‘bout our own style
all we care ‘bout is talking
talking only me and you
usually when things has gone this far
people tend to disappear
no-one will surprise me unless you do
i can tell there’s something goin’ on
hours seems to disappear
everyone is leaving i’m still with you
it doesn’t matter what we do
where we are going to
we can stick around and see this night through
and we don’t care about the young folks
talkin’ bout the young style
and we don’t care about the old folks
talkin’ ‘bout the old style too
and we don’t care about our own faults
talkin’ ‘bout our own style
all we care ‘bout is talking
talking only me and you
and we don’t care about the young folks
talkin’ bout the young style
and we don’t care about the old folks
talkin’ ‘bout the old style too
and we don’t care about our own faults
talkin’ ‘bout our own style
all we care ‘bout is talking
talking only me and you
talking only me and you
talking only me and you
talking only me and you
