Twin Shadow

"Be Mine Tonight" (stolen cutout video)

Even as a cardboard cutout, Twin Shadow (aka George Lewis Jr.) is a charmer, at least according to a fan-made video for Confess number "Be Mine Tonight." In it, a promotional standee of the modern nu-ro figure shows up on a Toronto lady's doorstep and immediately woos her with a dreamy, yet deadpan stare.

As the chill new wave ballad plays in the background, the homeowner sashays the singer to the bathroom and lovingly shaves off his cookie duster before bringing him to bed. There, the woman's hapless boyfriend/husband finds her and the reasonable facsimile of Twin Shadow getting cuddly.

You'd think he'd raise a stink about the revelation, but he just meekly crawls under the covers. It's a mildly depressing scenario all-around, and you can check it out down below.

Twin Shadow appears live in the flesh at Vancouver's Venue tomorrow (August 11) as part of his current tour. No word yet on if the cutout will be in attendance.
