This Bat For Lashes video by director Nima Nourizadeh has a vibe that's part Xanadu and part 70s airbrushed van art [something like this, but with a wolf, and on a van; something more like this, maybe]. Nourizadeh also throws in lots of dry ice, various planetary orbs, a Mohair version of that Brandon Flowers hairy shoulder coat and a whole bunch of theatricality to make a very outlandish, yet compellingly stylish set-piece to depict this dreamscape. --> watch "Pearl's Dream"
