Natalie Portman is pretty and all, but I definitely watch this video just because I love the way Devendra Banhart dances. I also can’t get over the line ‘Grandma! I love you in a salad way.’ That’s just the sort of poetic brilliance found in the body of spam emails, where I’ve read some of the funkiest stuff I’ve ever seen.
This video also looks like it was a lot of fun to make, and I really hope it was. Why is it that the low-tech things always look like they were the most fun? Maybe it was awful, and Natalie and Devendra got in a big fight, and that’s when he wrote in Kali, the Destroyer, and together they fired Natalie and hired an octopus as a big insult. Speaking of which, I have a lot of respect for octopi. I consider it good practice to respect squishy things.
