Only Real's "Yesterdays" is a brash, gristly brit-hop/pop tune with gallons of sunshine and snark, and like its creator, the video's a bit off-the-wall.
In the video he does an array of bizarre activities: he shaves a cactus, eats a donut full of little people, watches bathbombs fizz in a fishtank, watches a small child dive into a sofa, parties with tracksuit/sombrero-clad entourage, fries a gold/blue egg, and tries to take a shit while a bathtub full of ducks have a paddle. Only Real? Only Surreal, more like.
The track is taken from Only Real's debut record Jerk At The End Of The Line is out 30 March on Virgin EMI.
