Alex dances like an episode of Twin Peaks. And I love it.

[@themandalorian7352]

ooʞs ooʞs this whole thing screams twin peaks loll

[@immortalkingofficial9438]

This is exactly how I dance except I'm more shy. Props to Alex Cameron, because he just goes for it and doesn't care if he's awkward.

[@ThePlapMan]

Great way to put it

[@danielle5253]

Yesss!! Exactly!!

[@MrTrombonebandgeek]

Alex dresses like hes from twin peaks

[@clapadamclap]

seriously now, i implore you! if you get the chance to see this guy live, DO IT! I saw him open for UMO, had no idea who he was. He was walking around the bar in a huge Texan cowboy hat and dollar store looking suit, next thing hes on stage with a beat machine and 1 guy playing sax, and absolutely murdered the room with his moves, and random stories in between songs..

[@tripp3468]

nice. He seems to have a lot of stage presence even in these videos

[@popculturelio]

Got to see him this past saturday, had no idea who he was but instantly toke a place among my prefered artists.

[@katielicheni9451]

I'm gonna be seeing him open for The Killers! i thought I'd check him out beforehand and I am OBSESSED!!!

[@cuezaireekaa]

Damn now I wish I saw him without knowing who he was. I love it when I see people like that for the first time.. I saw EMA like that open for...wait for it UMO in denver. ...not knowing and amazed at how larger than life she was

[@GCKize]

Random guy on the sax? That's Roy Malloy! 😍

[@Glambertx96]

2:56........ One of the best melodies to ever grace my ears

[@estebanvazquez1524]

Listen to rock bottom by king Krule

[@Glambertx96]

Esteban Vazquez just did, thank you!

[@FireypepperCP]

I think this is the "prettiest" part of all of his songs. It's SO good!

[@meciocio]

@@estebanvazquez1524 i agree, the bridge melody is cool as f

[@HaloSpice]

"Death is the pulse in your eye on your very last breath" That is the best line in the entire album.

[@donkeypong1847]

That is the best line ever period

[@HarperNguyen]

Rare to find an artist that makes music you love and dances the way you do.

[@d0devig530]

ALEX CAMERON IS THE BEST. His album is ADDICTING. LISTEN TO ALL OF IT. SEE HIM. GIVE HIM MONEY.

[@Bandstand]

I bought that shit son.

[@shashankkumar2525]

him and kirin j callinan man, the best

[@georgej4936]

Shashank Kumar right!? I'm obsessed with both of them at the moment.

[@coolman295able]

australia has some great talent right now, hope they get more famous soon, they deserve it

[@titsandbeer2693]

Bounced on my boys D for hours to this

[@verabirgitta8588]

My 3 year old is obsessed with Alex Cameron's music b/c I'm always playing it etc; and I think in Runnin' Outta Luck he does some more of his usual dancing, but she kept asking .."Mommy why is he squatting???" and I said, "It's just part of his dance..." (trying to keep a straight face.) And now whenever she sees the thumbnail for Mongrel, she makes me play it and tries to dance like Alex...sorry for the long comment but I think it's really funny/cute and we love your music !!!

[@joseantoniocardozolopez1055]

This guy is gonna be huge.

[@eiDeLL666]

Alex has THE BEST moves!

[@thisbubblygoodness7611]

i have this gut feeling that this song will eventually be used in Grand Theft Auto in some way. its the perfect song for it.

[@bondipeter8704]

Used in “The Big Dog”

[@WeAcceptEBT]

Gives me that strong urge to wear a trench coat while shuffling in place.

[@cirrus2013]

I love his dancing too! Alex Cameron taught me to have fun dancing for the first time since I was a child or even the first time in my life! Never really liked it before.

[@nilscelrau]

filmed in my childhood town! 🖤

[@oliverhorvath287]

It's because of Roy of course :D

[@katielicheni9451]

The start is like when you really don't know the opening act but you wanna show your support by dancing anyway

[@dealman64]

Just saw him open up for Thee Oh Sees at The Chapel here in SF. Someone on this comment list said "murdered the room" - which is spot on for what we experienced. Given the "genre" of the preceding opener and Thee Oh See's - which is post-punk, surf grunge - AC was a complete curve ball. At first - the audience was kind of stunned but then he just slayed it. A real original feel despite the comparisons to Byrne, Bowie, Nick Cave, Jagger and of course Christian Bale. I'd go see him for a whole show and pay top dollar. Hope he can jump the shark in the business and get the recognition he deserves.

[@tripp3468]

agreed, he's very talented. hope to see him live sometime

[@TheTacticalMess]

Roland Deal I just found out about him by browsing KZbin and I'm really loving his music - as someone who really enjoys Nick Cave, this is great.

[@ChowderPope]

cut to a year later...

[@Selfcontortion]

was it just him and a computer for the drums/keys? he's playing again in February and I'd like to go but it would be nice to see a full band.

[@blopblopblee]

I was at that show! He completely caught me off guard, but I was so impressed with his music I ended up bying his record on the way out the doors. I almost drove to California just to see him play again in LA (I'm from Vegas) but didn't have the time, unfortunately.

[@TheTeekaboo]

That dance is killer wow

[@ray-mc-l]

Absolutely love when the model on the right thinks "what the hell am I doing?" at 0:53

[@willwithskills8578]

This video is strangely mesmerizing...

[@frank34443]

those subtle synths are sooooo good... i mean it seems like a legit 80's music video

[@jsequine927]

Alex Cameron is fucking brilliant all round. As a human, writer and performer. And so is that badass saxophonist Roy for that matter.

[@jsequine927]

And the girl sending beautiful pictures of her eyes who's actually a Nigerian dude

[@popybo]

Filmed in Constanta, Romania.

[@rieldilpikl]

With those damned dangerous ass teeter totters, lol. Many painful memories with those...

[@deannarosie2303]

Drops of blood in a green glass vial would visually cancel each other out making the drops look muddy brown. So cool! Love color theory I never thought of this until yesterday

[@vyrus2]

Such a good song. Man that guitar/synth bit that comes in at like 2:50 sounds so much like an Eno bit off of tiger mountain or another green world

[@glaucobittencourt6179]

I had the pleasure to meet this guy in Budapest. He is gonna be huge!

Another bomb track from Jumping the shark. Deca-dance king.

[@onox4740]

I had a history teacher in high school who looked exactly like him, always makes me giggle watching these music videos cus his personailty was just about the furthest thing from Alex Cameron

[@beverlynunes7593]

I'm another Alex addict checking in. Just saw him in San Francisco and loved the whole show. Alex agreed (I'm pretty sure) to me letting to be his grandma. I'm too old to be much else but I'm a huge fan! What a fun guy and Roy's the bomb!

[@Wavecattt]

Aaaah how i love that guy!!! The way he dance and the drama in his expression is soo funny😂 and i love it!!! saw him for the first time in saint malo but i going to see him again in Amsterdam paradiso!! I became i fan!! he brings the 80's back!!!!XD

This guy completely understands the 1980’s, and you can see from his videos it’s done with tongue in cheek

[@Yer_Da_]

The movements he makes in the beginning part are trippy as, he moves like some sort of computer game character. great track by the bye.

[@jackstorm777]

This past weekend I saw Alex live in Minneapolis with Roy Malloy, the show they put on was absolutely fantastic, complete with a google chair review from Roy between songs. At one point the music box cut out, Alex and the audience sung and clapped the rest of the song Gospel style. One of the best concerts I'd ever seen

[@vanessa_the_mindset_maven]

Man, this video reminds me of watching 120 Minutes on MTV in the early 90's.....

Up there with the best of Alex Cameron, so so so so so good

Saw him live in Philadelphia recently and he didn’t perform this song. I was so sad 😞 This might be the greatest song ever. Dance moves included. I’m in my 40’s and I bust out these dance moves in random public places 😬

KING

[@benicha7038]

Dingue!!! Ce mec est un génie!!!!

[@confuseatronica]

I feel like he's a guy with a look and a sound that comes completely from within existing 80s and 90s music. I wouldn't ever give someone this and say "you gotta hear this, he's doing stuff you've never heard before!!!" But it _works_ so well, I can't fault it really.

[@andrewbolten2988]
