Paramore are really going balls to the wall with this 'quirky' vibe, huh? The band stopped by The Late Late Show with James Corden last night to play "Told You So," the second single from their fifth album After Laughter, and, well, I don't know man, there were just a lot of berets.

"Told You So" itself a helpful example of the band's new, poppier direction having finally broken the shackles of the pop-punk power chords that has defined them since their inception. And it seems that along with the poppier vibe, the band have also injected more whimsy into their act – their first music video for After Laughter (for first single "Hard Times") had a distinct 80's nostalgia sheen, where this live performance sees Hayley giving her best kooky librarian, complete with cat-eye glasses, and wailing as good as she always did. Honestly, I kind of love it.

Lauren kind of also wants a beret? Follow her on Twitter.
