Generations


This is what I think of when I need a shorthand way of characterizing all millennials as a faceless group.* It's a video by a 28-year-old performer from Vancouver who has a beautiful French-Canadian name but calls herself Grimes.

About 22 million people (and counting) have viewed her single "Oblivion" on YouTube. (I discovered it when it popped up during a Guided By Voices playlist.) It's a fun, low-budget homage to slacker gloom and developmentally arrested young men. Nice pea coat, girl!
