Absolut vodka loves its video collaborations. So far, the spirits brand has teamed up with Spike Jonze to produce a bizarre short film about a man with a PC console for a head; documented a Jay-Z benefit concert at Madison Square Garden; and spent a day following Cee-Lo Green as he expounded his musical philosophy. Now, the Scandinavian alcohol distiller has released a crazy music video—with Swedish House Mafia, natch—that may remind you of a certain soon-to-be-blockbuster-movie book, depending on how much time you spend in the YA section.

The TBWA\Chiat\Day video, which touts Absolut as the perfect ingredient in the Greyhound, a cocktail made of vodka and grapefruit juice, literally revolves around a greyhound race.
