The Pipettes – Pull Shapes
Is it alright that I really like the video for The Pipettes’ single “Pull Shapes”?
It’s so…random. I mean, the cast of overly happy dancing characters is deliberately random and awkward. But that’s the point, right? They should’ve thrown in something even more random, like in this fan-made video for OK Go’s “A Million Ways” that features a dancing mattress in the background. It doesn’t matter if the dancing is only mediocre— it has a dancing mattress.
I hadn’t heard of The Pipettes until I read about them The Music Slut. Identical outfits, coordinated dance-ish moves, and poppy 60s tunes. So cute, it hurts. I like it.

The Pull Shapes video is based on a scene in Beyond the Valley of the Dolls. I thinks there’s a mashup of it somewhere on YouTube.
