Sweden’s Jens Lekman has always had a penchant for sweet, upbeat pop and surprising, humorous lyrical turns. The title track from his forthcoming album, which will see release on September 4th via Secretly Canadian. The video for the song is a simple, well-shot arrangement, showing the band dressed in dark clothing performing against a white background. The song utilizes orchestral instrumentation and samples of a laughing while Lekman delivers the sweetest sounding diatribe you’ve ever heard about hating seeing couples at shows. Watch and listen above.
