The music video is relatively clean, but there's a scene of a girl getting her 😺 eaten out.

Here we have the music video for the Tame Impala song "The Less I Know the Better" from 2015. Director is Canada, obviously an alias, so I don't want to say too much about that anymore in addition. Actually, if you take a look at that name and the actors you will see that this is indeed a Spanish production, which obviously isn't obvious from the English lyrics and the typical American high school setting depicted in these slightly under 6 minutes. Or maybe the costumes are a bit on the Hispanic side? I don't know, maybe it was just me thinking that because I knew the country of production. By the way, the 6 minutes I just mentioned also include a whole lot of credits at the very end, which may be a bit exaggerated and it also takes a little while until the song starts blasting. The tune is catchy, the chorus at least, but nothing too special. The video site is sometimes better, especically during the first 3 minutes probably and sometimes worse, almost the entire second half. I did like the use of colors here too and on one occasions, that actually does mean colors in the most literal sense. This sure looked artistic, but yeah, maybe it is also easier to appreciate as a straight male. All in all, however, it was a bit too absurd and over-the-top in my opinion. It's probably still better to listen to this song with the music video than without it, but that's not because the video is really particularly good. Style over substance at times. I think you should skip the watch here. And the listen as well.
