This. This is the song at the bottom of the album you don't like, and then you listen to it again a few years later and you're like, "wowie"

At this point I'm such a fan of OK GO to knowing that Trish (the director and dancer of this beautiful video) is Damian's sister and the choreographer of the first OK-GO videos, more notably the dance in the backyard and the treadmill. Incredibly artistic family!

I do kinda love how the guy looks so dapper in all the sequences but then the end comes and he's wearing tennis shoes.

[Kilyra]

My favourite part is when he goes off screen and she's suddenly in the jean skirt and confused. Then he pulls her into the next scene and they are just so connected with the purple dance. There's just such a sweet feel to the whole thing and this little part just adds a special touch of caring for me. Maybe I'm having an overly sentimental day, but I really love this video.

I have to say, despite this being a rather tame video in comparison to their other, more well know videos. That was Executed PERFECTLY the artistic representation of the dancing couples Life, displayed through the color of their outfits along side the color of the locations, which they danced through was SPOT ON! this was a dare I say... GORGEOUS video

My god the costume designer did a phenomenal job with this video! The movement of some of her dresses is just amazing.

[Tovacorona]

So charming, elegant, stylish, emotional. Love it. Trish Sie did an awesome job directing, choreographing and performing. I must've watched this 10 times. Yesterday I showed it to an 8 year-old friend who asked, "Are they married?" "I have no idea, " I said. "I think they must be either married or very good friends to dance like that, " she said. Her comment shows how their intimacy and tenderness come through.

What could be cooler than a very colorful slowmo tango?

[ClarkKnowles]

Certainly one of the most beautiful OKGO songs and videos. Really stunning. 

[JanineStoryteller]

I've watched this video so many times! Each time I notice something in their steps. It's a beautiful love story shown by the colors of the rainbow with marriage in white. Each time there is something wrong in the relationship they go back colors. Intertwining legs as they get closer... So much elegance and expression even though their faces mostly stay the same in their tango... Matches the entire song. ❤️

This song has incredible swag and presence!

4 years later and out of all the OK Go songs I still come back to this one. Trish Sie <3

OK GO Make the most interesting, original, innovative & fun videos in the world IMO, but Skyscrapers is my favorite one of all.
It's just sublime.

[Watchman]

A "Colorful Tango" is displayed on this video. A Tango, for me, is more than Poetry in Motion, and OK Go truly recites poetry with their dance...

[lionsden.]

That leg sweep at 1:55 is sooo smooth...

[ShOwOba]

I don't know how, but this song out of all of them has become my no.1 favorite, despite being the simplest video-wise. Something about watching them dance is so entrancing, it makes me kinda emotional.

[kompyk]

Damian's scream at 2:47 is fucking unreal. I listen to a fair bit of music with screaming in it, but this is the only time I've heard a vocalist do like... an actual, voice-damaging, holy-shit-OW scream. It sounds like he got stabbed through the foot and kept singing anyway.

[nagashtheforsaken]

OK Go has the best videos. They really do.

[davidnedrow]

This is one of the simplest music videos from OK Go, but one of my favorites.

The dancing is a metaphor for the relationship they have. The times when they are together, when they split up, the confusion, the lost feelings, and then they get back together.
