Runaround Sue Summer Remix
Summer almost over (unless you live in San Francisco where it’s just starting) so I wanted to share this awesome summer song with you.
In a modern retelling of an old school problem, G-Eazy skilfully layers hiphop beats over Dion‘s #1 pop hit from 1961. Furthering the foregone conclusion that anyone named Sue can not be trusted, director Tyler Yee portrays his retro-chic Sue as a devilishly sweet lady-about-town. Like the song, the music video combines an old school “let’s go to the ice cream shop after the sock hop” vibe with a present-day response to how one should react to such situations. Seriously Sue, isn’t one sexy greaser enough for you?
