What better way to find new love than to reach for the same Serge Gainsbourg record as your potential mate? Until iTunes' Ping social networking (this does exist) really catches on, the hunt for the perfect music boo still must happen in spots like Fort Lauderdale's Radio-Active Records.

Miami singer/songwriter Kim Drake uses the vinyl section in the back of the store (that conveniently stocks her CD) as her heart's playground in the video for "Modest Man," the first single from Surrealist's Dream. Filmed by Fernando Perdomo, the bright colors within match the sunny song along the Jenny Lewis route. Things get violent when it comes to a copy of Pet Sounds, though.
