You might already remember Ke$ha’s newest single, “Your Love Is My Drug”. She performed it on Saturday Night Live several weeks ago, and I’m sure if you did see it, it was seared upon your fragile mind. The SNL performance featured fake tribal gear, lasers and tragedy. It was epic in its failure. So what’s the actual video like for a song that actually has the lyric “Like a lovesick crackhead”? You can imagine.
The video starts out in the desert, and I was prepared for just random animal imagery, as The Drunk Child seems to prefer. She’s writhing around with a tiger head on at one point, I think. There’s an elephant too, which is weird, because the desert looks like Arizona or Death Valley, not Kenya. Then there some weird budget cartoon sh-t happening. Like, some Hannah-Barbera sh-t.
Oh, and then The Drunk Child goes back to the glow-in-the-dark paint, the stuff she used for her SNL performance. Oh, a snake! I’ve got to wonder who wrote the treatment for this video. My guess? A lovesick crackhead.
Here’s the SNL performance, just in case you missed it:
