Brooklyn musicians Jonathan Mann and Ivory King decided to break up after five years. Next they decided to turn their breakup into a song and that song into a video, which is now a viral hit on YouTube.
Mann posts a song a day to his YouTube account, so he took the opportunity to appear with King in a video whose lyrics explain, to friends and relatives, that they have irreconcilable differences. The crux of the breakup? Mann wants babies, and King does not.
Is this a good reason to break up? Do you like her coat? Is this video sad, confusing, twee as hell? We know they’re broken up, but questions remain.
