[edit] Music video

The video is set at Camp Holadios, a fictional summer camp ("Holadios" is a portmanteau of the Spanish words "hola" and "adiós", thus creating an equivalent of "hellogoodbye", while being a play-on-words "Hello God"). While Forrest, Jesse, Marcus and Chris (Band Members) are all staying there, Forrest becomes interested in chasing a girl who is also at camp. The music video has a very 90's aesthetic, as campers play with pogs. It also is reminiscent of the film "Wet Hot American Summer." One of the references to this movie is when Forrest puts on the headband and sunglasses similar to the change that "Coop" undergoes to win the affection of a girl with the same name, "Katie."
