Declan McKenna gets a workout in his ‘Why Do You Feel So Down?’ video

Following the release of his debut album ‘What Do You Think About The Car?’ earlier in the year, Declan McKenna’s got a new clip for ‘Why Do You Feel So Down?’

Talking of the track, Declan said: “I really don’t know where the whole sparkly slacker pop thing came from but it happened, I think it’s because the whole song is kind of jokey, making fun of myself (and a lot of other things) so it came out as an almost piss-take dance tune, but it’s also a bit sad. It’s a lot of things, I think I was just sixteen when I started on this one. I was a confused babby…”

The track’s new video – directed by Phil Poole – sees Deccers taking part in some good old fashioned morning telly, alongside a Mr. Motivator-style leader, as the lyrics to the track scroll by like rolling news. Deccers and his fellow workout buddies also occasionally hold up a few signs, asking questions like: “do you care?”

Declan has just played a couple of UK dates, and he’s set to continue his run around the country later in the month. Tickets are on sale now.
