Lykke Li: Breaking It Up (Alternative Video)

6:15 p.m. · October 17, 2008 · by Matthew Richardson

The more I see of Lykke Li, with her flowing stage dress, and her insouciant, dancy ways, the more I am convinced that her aesthetic is that of some kind of newfangled, neo-Stevie Nicks, without the air of mysticism.[more:] This new video for album cut "Breaking It Up" has Lykke Li performing with a live band, admist a room full of swinging lightbulbs. Maybe she just wants to get you pumped for her brief US tour, which begins this Sunday.
