Eels Get Revenge For Terrorist Questioning In New Video

September 24, 2010
Eels Get Revenge For Terrorist Questioning In New VideoEels frontman E has revealed that their new video takes revenge for being questioned by police on suspicion of being a terrorist in London last summer.

The singer was mistaken for a suspected terrorist in Hyde Park, but let go when police realised he hasn't the individual.

The video for 'Baby Loves Me', which can be watched below, gives the impression that London has become a toy town.

In a statement, E said: “All I know is sometimes I'm big, sometimes I'm small, and sometimes I'm really, really tiny.

“Kind of like how I feel from day to day. And I see a lot of the world in this video, much like I do on our world tour right now.”

He added: It's my way of saying 'thanks for making me feel bad by accusing me of being a terrorist in Hyde Park this June. I'll show you. I'll make your city look like a toy."

'Baby Loves Me' is taken from the band's recently released album 'Tomorrow Morning'.
