It is not everyday that you get recruited to star in a music video with your favorite band. The 1975‘s new video for “TOOTIMETOOTIMETOOTIME” is a colorful celebration of music loyalty. This is the third single from The 1975 ahead of their upcoming third album.
With the song’s technology theme and fun, pulsating beat, the video setting fits right in. Set along a color-changing backdrop, we see frontman Matty Healy singing along with a slew of die-hard fans. Healy is sporting new blonde hair and all-black tux. It looks very similar to their video for “Girls” from their debut album.
The fans are the true stars of the video, however. It’s clear that they are having the time of their lives. They’re having a dance party with many takes of them individually singing along. “Think we need to rewind // You text that boy sometimes // Must be more than three times // Didn’t mean to two-time ya,” they sing. The song is all about communications among the online age, and The 1975’s fan base represents this perfectly.
Fans gathered in Europe to film the video in July, and from the looks of it, it seems like it was an unforgettable day.
