Rhys and the rest of the Super Furries enlisted Brit funnyman Matt Berry to play the lead in this cheeky, soft-focused bit of ’80s fun. Matches the musical melodrama to a tee, and it’s got some nice what-goes-around-comes-around symmetry. Love when Gruff gets goofy.

    That was fun. Not as kinetic and zippy as “Lazer Beam”, but hey, very little is.
