Video: Soko - "I Thought I Was An Alien"

1.

Back in 2009, Soko proved she was possibly the most quirky singer/songwriters ever with “I’ll Kill Her.” Dishing out the title for the most quirky singer/songwriter is saying a lot, because you know how singer/songwriters can be–they can be quirky. But Soko is on another level with her crazy lyrics and sing/talk delivery. Here’s some info on her:

– She’s half cute and half weird.

– She’s French, but thinks she’s from another planet.

– She disappeared from music, moved to LA, and became an actress.

– She returned to music with this video, directed by Spike Jonze.

– Her album I Thought I Was An Alien comes out in February of 2012.

Some lyrics:

You look at me as if I was a freak,

But you said you like freaky people,

So I thought you might like me a little bit 

I guess that’s true. Hit the jump to watch…
