Today’s music video of the day is for the first single to be released off of Tegan and Sara’s upcoming album, Hey I’m Just Like You.
Seeing as how the album is made up of re-recorded versions of songs that the Quin sisters originally wrote in high school, it’s perhaps appropriate that this video has a retro, 90s feel to it. At this point, just seeing a landline phone hanging on a wall almost makes the video seem as if it’s taking place in some strange fantasy world. According to Tegan and Sara, this video is about the angst of waiting for someone to acknowledge your efforts to reach out to them. It’s also about people’s obsession with checking their phones.
It’s about a lot of things.
Enjoy!
