It took me a while to realize the woman lipsyncing the words in Lykke Li’s new video for “Breaking It Up” was, in fact, the coolly spunky Swedish singer, and not a wayward Olsen twin. The song is fantastic, the clip attached to it filled with melancholia both pre- and post-coital. Bonus fact: the video’s director, Sarah Chatfield, also was behind the camera for the color-coordinated video for Annie’s “I Know Your Girlfriend Hates Me” and Lily Allen’s puppet play “Alfie.” [Shots Ring Out]
