You didn't expect to see a Jamie Cullum video here now did you? Well it's an interesting blend and a very new direction for Cullum. A couple of interesting elements here to note, this is a Cole Porter song and it's over an instantly recognizable interpolation of Roots Manuva's 'Witness the Fitness'. It's gone full circle you might say, jazz sampling hip-hop and works fantastically. So my interest is now piqued at what else he does with his upcoming album on Island Records this year sometime.
And of course the video features TV actor Larry Lamb, directed by Charlie & Joe at Forever Pictures, who take the lyrics of the song very literally.
