"Paradise" (video)

While you may already be familiar with gauzy dream pop tune "Paradise" from Wild Nothing's latest LP Nocturne, actress Michelle Williams has now jazzed the number up with a voiceover cameo in the track's new video. In fact, she's the star of the show in a jet-setting clip that a press release notes "chronicles travel by plane and the paradise found just beyond the window."

After boarding her flight, Williams cranks an old-school Walkman and peeps the cloud cover from the plane's window, but becomes even more overcome with beauty once she encounters the falls. That's about the time the voiceover comes in, featuring the actress reading a snippet from Iris Murdoch's 1975 novel A Word Child.
