One of the many highlights from James’ La Petite Mort album is the single Curse Curse. It is a dance-electro anthem that manages to lyrically combine fruity double entendre, tequila and iconic Barcelona footballer Lionel Messi.
The video was filmed live at Mares Vivas Festival in Vila Nova De Gaia in Portugal in a rainstorm.
Using the services of a hypnotist found in the local Yellow Pages, lead singer Tim Booth is first put under hypnosis and the band then performs “We’re Going to Miss You”, singing, playing instruments, and performing in a state of hypnotic reverie in what appears to be a local community centre. Jim and Saul both refused to be hypnotised.
Director John Hardwick clarifies: “We wanted to reveal a more intimate side to a well known band and felt hypnotic trance was a way to create a vulnerable and poetic performance. We shot it with a documentary approach in a deliberately anonymous location to induce the least promo-like atmosphere possible. Two band members refused to be hypnotised so they are seen observing the process.”
