December 8th, 2011 by Matt
It’s got to be tough to make a video for “Don’t Stop (Color on the Walls)” given that everyone in America has spent the past couple of months hearing it soundtrack a commercial for a car (to be fair it is a good commercial). But it’s done quite well with this stylized driving instruction nightmare.
