The Ting Tings may be best known for their iPod commercial song "Shut Up And Let me Go" or it's kung fu meets White Stripes video, but I also loved "That's Not My Name" from their debut disc We Started Nothing. It even landed at number 55 on my top 100 songs of 2008. So I was very excited to see that song released as a US single, with a trippy video.
The sound is thumping bass lines and a cheer along chorus, but the video is crazy after hours fun. Dancing in the dark with glow-in-the-dark-painted people carrying signs with lead singer Katie's not my names, the duo apes the glossy look of late-nineties urban pop videos while retaining an indie shine.
