Description: The storyline of "You Got Me" concerns an unknown man enrolled in some sort of video dating service. Dissatisfied with every date, he decides to cut out his favorite features from each headshot and send them off to the company. In return, he gets a box filled with mannequin parts and various wigs from which he can create the girl of his dreams. The POV style from the conceptual footage extends to the performance, where director Ryan Rickett does an excellent job of making it seem like we're looking out the eyes of each band member. Oh, and in keeping with the  vibe of this new wave tune, there's also some footage of masked men in a romance factory that wouldn't be out of place in a typical video from the 80's. You can watch "You Got Me" courtesy of vhsorbeta.com in either Real or Windows Media.
    Bonus info: One of the dates is Annie Hardy of Giant Drag and the delivery man is played by Ima Robot  frontman Alex Ebert (who is also a Refused TV director).
