Synopsis

Curry & Coco's "Top Of The Pop" unfolds as a surreal, deliberately low-fi collage rather than a conventional narrative. The duo's performance is mixed with images of a Citroen BX Break, strange photographs that appear to sing, Japanese subtitles, and masked figures wearing red hoods and sunglasses. The disconnected scenes match the song's exaggerated cosmic imagery, creating a playful, deadpan world that feels part pop promo, part homemade art experiment.

Factoids & Trivia

  • The video was presented as a new clip for the single during the promotional campaign surrounding Curry & Coco's debut album, "We Are Beauty."
  • Curry & Coco were involved in co-realizing the video, fitting the clip's handmade, eccentric character and its refusal to follow standard pop-video conventions.
  • The Citroen BX Break is one of the video's most distinctive visual props, adding an unmistakably French touch to the otherwise surreal imagery.
  • Contemporary coverage specifically singled out the singing photographs, Japanese subtitles, and red-hooded figures as highlights of the clip's unusual visual language.
  • "Top Of The Pop" is the second track on "We Are Beauty," released in April 2010. The song runs for about three and a half minutes.
  • The track was also supported by free remixes, including a version by the French band Fortune, helping extend its online life beyond the original album release.
  • The clip reflects the duo's broader aesthetic: vintage electronic instruments, disco and post-punk references, bright pop excess, and a knowingly playful sense of humor.
