Twin Shadow’s “Slow” video is a clever parody of porn casting couch sessions, with main man George Lewis Jr. getting complimented on his “big talent” at the end. Directed by Alex Markman.

Why can I not place his vocals? Who does he sound like, seriously?
david bowie. a black david bowie in denim with a sweet stache and pompadore
For me he sounds similar to Richard Hawley. Also like Edwyn Collins (Orange Juice) and not like David Bowie at all.
ummmm…Black David Bowie? more like Morrissey and the beat is “She’s Lost Control”-Joy Division(ish) try listening to music once in a while…ohhhhhhhhh burnnnnnn!!!!!
P.S. i like it
“Yeah, I like Muscle Cars….”

This is pretty genius. I’ll bet his moustache was the inspiration for this video.
Need this record!
@ amixtape Bowie?
@Jerry: Nice call. Yep. Bowie. Especially right at the 2:28 mark. That’s f-ing awesome. Love the video concept.
So, what’s better: Twin Shadow’s song, the mustache, the Bowie-like vocals, the hairdo, or the clever porno casting-couch parody? It’s all sweet. @ Jerry: I wrote this back in Feb. after hearing his demos, “Hints of David Bowie. Maybe it’s the doubled-up harmonic vocal tracks. Or maybe it’s the strange lyrical sense of a phrase like, “Follow the boy with the yellow balloon.” That’s something Bowie would write.
Hey man…
I didnt know you wrote that back in febr. I am active on this site for just some weeks now…
I don’t know man what it is… It just sounds epic… I can’t get it out of my head… looking forward to his record…
He takes the best elements from the late 70′s and 80′s in his music and combine this with his appearance… It is a black Bowie! Fantastic!
Have heard a couple of songs from this guy and they sound pretty nice, but one look at his promo shots and I want to slap him in the face.
