    I love how the first verses make it sound like she was the toxic one, and then Kimbra's part comes in and forces you to reevaluate everything he said in the first half of the song. Considering she only had 6 or 7 lines of lyrics, I find it really powerful.

    I work in the trades, and there's usually a radio on in the background. I find most "pop" music bland and mildly irritating at best. Yet every once in a while a new song comes on that makes me tilt my head to one side like a dog. When this first started to get air time, I loved it's quirky - almost playful - musical nature contrasted with the darker, yet still kind of fun lyrics. Sending a friend over to collect records is such a wonderful inclusion, and very relatable. No complaints!

    The female singer's name is Kimbra, she's from New Zealand. I highly recommend you listen to some of her songs. "Come into my head", "Plain Gold Ring" and "Settle Down" are three of my favorites. I recommend her live versions of her songs because she's a loop artist (she's been looping before it became popular) and she records all of the individual sound layers of her songs live before putting them together and singing the melody over all of the vocal loops.

    They're not singing to each other.
    She is singing to him, but he is singing to somebody else. Without the video, you have the line "and I wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody that you used to know."
    The video drives this home with Kimbra's alternating loud & soft harmonies being represented as fluctuating desperation & frustration as she tries to get his attention, until she finally gives up, gets painted out of his world, and then the cycle starts over with her being the new somebody that he used to know.
    The song and video in its entirety truly is a masterpiece.
