The coming winter sends the Boy Least Likely To, like PAS/CAL, to the beach in this video for new single "The First Snowflake". But at first there's no snow on the ground except when the English indie-pop duo write the word in the sand with a stick. Filmed in Scotland, the video takes in vast, verdant landscapes that manage to convey that chilly early-winter feeling when the mercury is falling but the snowflakes aren't, not yet. As the lads wander around with their thermoses, the only perceptible flurry comes from their gentle tune's gusting snow-globe midsection. Then the band members reach a ridge, from which they can see a deer and-- yes-- mountains dusted with white. "Snow kept falling/ But no two snowflakes are ever the same," goes the song; a whole lot of uniqueness falls down as the Boy Least Likely To end their journey indoors beside a fireplace.[from "The First Snowflake" single and a forthcoming album; single due 12/15/08 on Too Young to Die, album due in March on Too Young to Die in the UK and +1 in the U.S.]

Just when you thought the Boy Least Likely To couldn't be any more twee. The Jayne Vidheecharoen directed video for "When Life Gives Me Lemons I Make Lemonade" is so sweet as fuck it almost hurts. A little knitted bird puppet with button eyes makes friends with a cute apple with eyes the same, and after they meet some mean looking lemons the bir...

Carefree days feel more and more distant with each skim of the ol' RSS reader, and The Boy Least Likely To's happy-sad twee-pop aches all the better for it. The UK duo of Pete Hobbs and Jof Owen can be seen scampering around a field and cruising in goofy vehicles in the video for latest single "A Balloon on a Broken String", from upcoming The Be...
