Song of the Day 27/09/2008

Beirut - Elephant Gun


A pretty extravagant and luxurious video to go with a similarly lavish-sounding song. How much do you want to be at that party, huh? Especially when it then turns into a night-time beach scene. Women wearing elephant trunks riding on the back of kneeling men. Lots of booze. Ticker tape. Not entirely sure when it's meant to be set: there are a fair few anachronisms if it's meant to be the 20s.

Mandolins and moustaches never sounded or looked cooler.
