Edwyn Collins

"Too Bad (That's Sad)" (video)

Edwyn Collins released his latest solo album, Understated, earlier this year, and now the former Orange Juice singer has shared a video for the track "Too Bad (That's Sad)."

The song is a bouncy, Motown-style R&B pop tune, and the video is appropriately vintage-looking. It's filled with spinning records, retro lens filters and colour tinting, and we see Collins and has backing band perform through a scrapbook-style montage of moving photos and film reels. Despite the clip's faux-vintage look, however, the flashy editing is distinctly modern.

Understated is available through Collins' own AED Records.
