Flaming torches and streaming ribbons hanging off the front of the car are not your usual Kiwi road-trip accessories but they're perfect visuals for this classic Bats song. Not to mention the iconic whirling burning guitar on the roadside. Alongside the moving imagery, fluid camerawork tracks the band performing in front of a DIY Jackson Pollock-esque backdrop. Alister Parker (Gordons, Bailterspace), John Christoffels, and Paul Kean (The Bats) are the directorial team. The song featured in the film Topless Women Talk About Their Lives.
