It seems like it was just yesterday that we were dancing along to Carly Rae Jepsen’s “Call Me Maybe” while playing the music video on repeat. Now, everyone’s favourite Rising Star of 2012 has released a fresh video to go with her new song “This Kiss”.
The video is not as summery, silly or fun as the one for “Call Me Maybe”. It’s a bit more serious, but still makes you want to dance. Both the song and video have an ’80s-inspired feel. The catchy synth beats are paired with neon lights shining through the dark as Carly Rae sings in a crowded dance club while hanging out with her best friends. There are lots of retro outfits and throwback references to spot, including an old photo booth. It’s certainly catchy, but definitely not as hit list worthy as “Call Me Maybe”.
“This Kiss” is Carly Rae’s third single and one of the tracks from her second studio album, ‘Kiss’, which was released on September 14.
