Charli XCX unveils new ‘Tokyo Version’ of ‘Boom Clap’ video

One of the biggest, best singles of the year just picked up a new video, because why not?

Charli XCX’s ‘Boom Clap’ was initially the backing for 2014 smash hit tearjerker ‘The Fault In Our Stars’. An original video saw Charli’s adventures take place in Europe, scattered with shots from the high-grossing adaptation.

Now she’s taking the ‘Sucker’ track into a new setting - her second home, Tokyo. Last year’s ‘SuperLove’ video was also shot here, and this time round Charli spends more time in amongst the dwarfing skyscrapers and striking views of this crazy city.

‘Sucker’ is due out in the UK on 26th January 2015.
