Pia Mia - "Touch" [Music Video Premiere]
Say what? How did she get Dave Meyers to direct the “Touch” music video? Is Dave a friend of the Kardashian-Jenner family (Pia Mia is friends with Kylie)? or is the confidence Interscope has on her greater than I expected?
Today, November 5th, Pia Mia premiered the music video for her new single “Touch” on VEVO. The indie-EDM song will appear on the Guam-born singer’s upcoming full-length debut album, which will apparently arrive in stores in early 2016.
“Touch” didn’t impress on the first listen when it got released last week. For it was too evident that Pia Mia had shamelessly jumped onto the indie-EDM bandwagon, and moreover, that she had kind of plagiarized the recent beats of Skrillex. But I must say that the music video has helped change my mind about Pia Mia’s new single somewhat. My ‘love’ for the song has gone from 5% to 15%.
The “MV” - where did they shoot this? Is that near L.A? - show Pia Mia serving pure sex throughout. Kylie Jenner’s friend has been taught well, lol. She serves stunning face, flawless make-up, amazing hair, and perfect dance moves! The concept of the video is bit disconcerting, though, as I don’t think it relates to the actual song at all. Well, except for the scenes where Pia Mia is ‘touched’ and ‘loved’ by Ice Cube’s son. Anyhow, I liked the “Touch” video, although I don’t think that fall (almost winter now) was the best season to release this.
My favorite part of the video? The scenes with all the flares by far! Those looked beautiful.
