Clever Music Video Made Using a LEGO Train Filming Anna Meredith and Her Band Performing ‘Paramour’

The inventive music video for the Anna Meredith single “Paramour” is shot from the perspective of a LEGO train riding an endless track around Meredith and her band performing the song. The video was directed by British animator and filmmaker Ewen Jones Morris.

The album is heralded by the release of ‘Paramour’, its first single and spectacular accompanying single-take video, featuring 1200 pieces of LEGO track, and a song that forbids you from turning away – its sweeps, jerks and wrong turns pinning your ears to the speakers whilst heading for warp speed at a blistering 176 BPM before rounding the journey out with an (utterly unexpected) tuba-led half-time rock-out.
