How do you spell Summer Fate? One issue Google hasn’t been able to help me with.

Anyway, the new Vampire Weekend video is ace. It has lots of fun bright things including summer fate(?) flags and bright paint, and confetti, and bells. And coloured paper circles doing what they do best (falling and bouncing).

Not just any confetti either (not the church kind) – speedy swirling confetti the video zooms along its dolly tracks in to. (Use of running up and down the dolly tracks – another things I like about this). Cheap budget, crap props, ace video.

I wasn’t a massive fan of the song when I first heard it, but whilst watching it in order to compile the above list of fun and bright things it grew on me a lot. Actually I’ve had to restrain myself from bouncing around in my chair. I’m cool.

Made by Garth Jennings, the director of Hitchhiker’s guide director. It’s not the first interesting person they’ve had direct – Richard Ayoade did a couple too.
