The Proclaimers would walk 500 miles, but their new video for "You Built Me Up" shows them performing while standing firmly in place.

The song is an energetic, crunchy rock ditty, and identical twin brothers Charlie and Craig Reid harmonize with in thick Scottish accents. In the accompanying video directed by Colin Usher, we see the siblings singing while backed by a full band, and the large windows in the room provide a scenic view of Edinburgh Castle.

Meanwhile, the pooch running around the room serves as a subtle reminder that the Proclaimers will release their album Let's Hear It for the Dogs on May 12 in Canada on Compass Records.

Watch the premiere below.
