GOTYE HEARTS A MESS
A pied piper walks the Earth, calling on its strange inhabitants to leave the wasted planet and follow him to a new world. It was a great honour to collaborate with such a creative talent as Gotye. The animated music video for Hearts a Mess reflects the dark romanticism of the haunting hit single.
