Paolo Nutini 'Iron Sky'
posted August 14, 2014 #
Caspar passed along a glowing recommendation for this Paolo Nutini music video for Iron Sky. After viewing it, I can safely say that I'm blown away by every aspect of it.
There's a highly cinematic feel to the whole thing and it definitely tells a story - though it keeps it vague and more up to you to fully decide what that story is. It's reminscent of El Guincho in that it feels more like a movie you've never seen than it does a music video - only Iron Sky has a rather dark undertone to the entire undertaking. I'm underselling it. Just watch it - sit with the quiet first 90 seconds, soak it in and really enjoy the rest.
