The Dø - Despair, Hangover & Ecstasy


The Dø - Despair, Hangover & Ecstasy

The tune doesn't do much for me, I suppose it's pop, but the airplane caught my attention. It looks like it might be a 747, but 747's don't have engines mounted in pairs. An inquiry on Flight Aware got me an answer.

Boeing 747-263B N88892 G-BDXJ
It was a 747 until it was retired, whereupon it took on a new life as a film prop, which is how it got the funny engine configuration.

The band that made the video is a little odd as well:
Their first studio album A Mouthful topped the French charts in 2008, making them the first French act singing in English to reach that position. - Wikipedia
