"Become Someone Else's" (video)

BY Exclaim! StaffPublished Oct 1, 2012

Once again, Jens Lekman has given us some new visuals to go along with his most recent album, I Know What Love Isn't. This time the clip is for album track "Become Someone Else's."

The vid is Lekman's third collaboration with director Marcus Söderlund, who explained in a statement, "These three videos that I made in collaboration with Jens were all done in one take. They are like a glass of water. They are nothing. But for me they are essential. Just as essential as air or water. Try to produce water — you will need that skill if you're going into the desert." 

To understand what he means, check out the clip below.

I Know What Love Isn't is out now via Secretly Canadian, and Lekman has several North American dates coming up, including some in Canada. You can see the sked below.
