Video: YACHT: "See a Penny (Pick It Up)"
YACHT's video for "See a Penny (Pick It Up)" is one of the most literal we've seen in a while. Here's the story: Someone drops a penny, someone else sees it and picks it up. In the video-- directed by Matt McCormick-- the penny comes to life in the form of YACHT's Jonah Bechtolt, dressed in a giant penny costume. Like the milk carton in Blur's video for "Coffee and TV", the penny hits the streets looking for friends. Bechtolt's movements are limited by his ridiculously over-sized costume, but his facial expressions are hilarious.
