Spoon have just shared the video for “Do I Have to Talk You Into It,” the latest single from this year’s Hot Thoughts. “Clearly it was time Lou Reed’s ‘No Money Down‘ video was remade for the 21st century,” says Britt Daniel, adding, “We did the research, and it turns out 80 percent of our fan base is composed of graphic designers. This one’s for y’all.” The video plays of Photoshop tutorial videos time-lapses a days worth of retouching, airbrushing and out-and-out transmogrification of Britt’s mug. You can watch it below.

In other news, Spoon also just released a 10th anniversary deluxe remastered edition of 2007’s Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga. The double-vinyl set has the original album on the first disc, and the 12-track Get Nice (originally a bonus CD) on the other disc. You can stream the deluxe edition of Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga below.
