New Lykke Li Video - "Breaking It Up" (Alternate Live Version)
The earlier Sarah Chatfield-directed video version of "Breaking It Up" found Bon Iver and Heidi Klum collaborator Lykke Li making like Erotica-era Madonna. In this alternate live version, shot by Christian Haag in one take, she has her Late Night megaphone on hand, but no shirtless dudes rubbing up against her. As she says about the light bulb-swinging clip, while prepping for her US tour:
Enjoying my last minutes of freedom with receipts and bills. Everyday life. What's nicer than cleaning and wiping floors is my new video for "Breaking It Up." It's as unpolished as it gets. Shot in one take live in Stockholm. If you didn't like my eye shadow in the other one you will love this I hope.
What if you like both?

I only discovered Lykke Li when I saw her at Lovebox in London this year, and I was stunned. What a voice, what a sound. And that Bon Iver collabo - genius.

So how is she doing those kid-choir part in there? The drummer must be playing to a click, because the sample is so long and rhythmic that it would be impossible to get it synced up any other way
Score = 1
she sounds like a cold war kid
