(SF) 'The First Time he Kissed a Boy' Denmark 2014
'First Time He Kissed A Boy' by Danish band Kadie Elder is an electro-pop song, with a stunning music video to go with it. The music video with its muted pastel colours is aesthetically pleasing and beautifully shot. It’s very clean and sharp with a simple, effective style. It’s refreshing to see a music video representing gay youth and sexuality. The song itself is very catchy and quite ethereal, with a tune that will stay in your head. It’s about having that first kiss, having previously only known repression and hiding your identity. Your whole world widens in this moment and just like the music, everything becomes much more positive. It can be lonely being a gay youth and making that first connection with someone is so empowering. One of my all time favorite videos.
