Daft Punk‘s “Instant Crush” serves as the latest single of album Random Access Memories, complete with a video release during the early hours of this morning. Set in a location mirroring that of The Museum of Natural History in New York City, the robots prove mannequins have feelings too through a tragic love story that will literally melt your heart. The Strokes frontman Julian Casablancas serves as a vocal point for the video, lending his vocoded vocals to the symbolic tale. Daft Punk recently took the prize for Rolling Stone‘s #1 Song of 2013 for “Get Lucky” and are favorites to take away a number of nominations for this year’s Grammy awards announced today.
