Today’s featured track for New Music Tuesday comes to us from Portugal. The Man!
You’ve heard it on 106.3 Radio Lafayette… but have you SEEN the crazy music video for Portugal. The Man’s “Live In the Moment”??
So, at first it seems pretty normal… the music video starts with the band members riding in a car. Here’s where it gets weird. On top of the car is a giant, life sized wooden puppet man, riding the car like its a skateboard. It certainly feels like one of those art films you watch in college as a visual arts major. But wait there’s more! A second car shows up with an old man puppet and they have a “skate-off” sort of thing happening with vehicular kick-flips and whatnot. There’s also some fun camera work of the band members being thrown around inside the car while it’s upside down. Check it out below!
“Live In the Moment” is from Portugal. The Man’s latest album Woodstock, check out their YouTube Channel for more videos!
