New Chairlift Video - "Ceiling Wax"

thumbnail icon: New Chairlift Video - "Ceiling Wax"

Mixing indie pop and interpretative dance is a great idea and Chairlift are known for their great ideas. In this treatment for "Ceiling Wax" (the Chairlift song most reminiscent of "In The Air Tonight") the fancy footwork is handled by Aaron's sister. Caroline directed, tour manager Ethan Silverman filmed, and everyone in the band writhed on the floor in garbage bags ("not a great idea" -Chairlift's mom).

It seems like this video was shot through a peephole. I feel like a pervert watching it.
