And then it ends with the Strawberry Fields outro, great! Love the third one too, mesmerizing riff which combines with the bass in a really cool way
I don't know how apparent The Beatle reference was in the last video was but Plastic Girl in Closet were playing on a roof top.

I try to make a connection with the songs I post. Tennessee Thomas is/was the drummer for The Like, her father played drums for Elvis Costello. Ryan Ross and Jon Walker left Panic! @ the Disco and formed The Young Veins. Z Berg (the lead singer/guitar player of The Like) sang backing vocals on a few of the songs on their album Take A Vacation! I think at the time Ryan Ross and Z Berg were an item and you can see how they both went retro - complete with black & white videos - like they just stepped out of the 60s.
