Gnarls Barkley Take It Back To ’84 (And Possibly ’64?)
Bookended by a cameo from a Justin Timberlake profiling in Cazals and white leather, the gleeful new video for Gnarls Barkley’s “Run” is a tribute to a beloved but short-lived teevee hip-hop dance party, at least according to one Idolator reader left irate by certain lazy comparisons to American Bandstand. Whatever the neon inspiration for the clip’s first half, the last few black and white minutes do have a certain swinging ’60s op-art thing going on and should probably come with a seizure warning.
