The Beards music video for the song 'Got Me A Beard' is an anthem for all the men out there with hairy faces and for those who adore them. The song and music video follow the story of a bearded man who leaves his girlfriend after she asks him to shave.
The bearded protagonist sings about the trials of having a beard, like how "sometimes it itched." Luckily, he finds a community where beards are accepted and celebrated. In a dark but hilarious twist, the bearded folk exact their revenge on the clean shaven world, calling upon the Vikings to battle axe people in half as part of their revolt.
The video was created by animators Chris Edser, Bill Northcott and Jarrod Prince.
