Whilst he didn’t win the award on the evening, David Bowie did premiere his new video last night at the Mercury Prize ceremony in London.
The clip is for the James Murphy remix of “Love is Lost”, set to feature on the deluxe reissue of The Next Day. It sees Bowie showcase his personal collection of puppets and ventriloquist dolls, some of which look an awful lot like the man himself.
The entire thing was made with a measly budget of $12.99, the price of a USB stick Bowie used to upload the entire thing. You can watch the clip now beneath:
