Watch: Lykke Li Unveils Heartbreaking ‘No Rest For The Wicked’ Video
Tarik Saleh directs the video, taken from Lykke Li’s ‘I Never Learn’.

Lykke Li
hits the nail on the head with her ‘No Rest For The Wicked’ video, summing up the fact that there’s nothing worse than being torn away from a loved one against your will. She spends the video alone with a special someone, seemingly aware this might be the last time she ever sees him. It shows moment aparts, and brief flickers of time together. The dramatic, often miserable bulk of new album ‘I Never Learn’ makes complete sense.
Tarik Saleh directs the video. ‘I Never Learn’ is out 5th May.
