Dev Hynes directed and edited the clip, which captures the singer/songwriter playing instruments in an empty apartment and an assortment of dancers showcasing their moves on rooftops.

Try to remember the last time your phone was not the first thing you reached for in the morning. I can’t recall a time when it wasn’t.
