"Sing Sang Sung" is a song by the French duo Air. It is the most successful song on their 2009 studio album Love 2. It was released as a single from that album on 25 August 2009.
An animated music video was produced to promote the single, which depicts a ball rolling around a world that was called reminiscent of a level in a Sonic the Hedgehog video game.[1] The video was directed by Petra Mrkyz and François Moriceau.[2]
Amrit Singh of Stereogum called it "nice" and wrote that "whatever joy 'Do the Joy' lacked comes through many times over in Air's infectious Love 2 single".[3] Scott Plagenhoef of Pitchfork felt that it works "better in the context" of Love 2, "where it serves as a breath of fresh air" as it is "one of the lightest, most agile moments on a more bottom-heavy record".[4]
