Mayer Hawthorne – Green Eyed Love, Video.
Pause at 1:44 for a great close-up of a sweaty, pasty white, Peter-Parker-looking Mayer Hawthorne.
This is a great example of a video that takes a song to the next level. The video reveals Hawthorne’s ‘green-eyed love’ to be absinthe and the latter three quarters show him hallucinating, which relays his goofiness in a way that the song does not.
Not that his previous videos haven’t done that already.

[…] Mayer Hawthorne’s music videos consistently kick ass. When I saw the wobbly cam in the opening shot, I feared for a second that it would be on some discount video bullshit. But then the video launched into a choreographed, minimally edited, one-shot pageant of sunbathed happiness that made me wish I grew up in the 60s, back when everyone was happy all the time. For more fun, see the videos for “One Track Mind” and “Green Eyed Love.” […]
