Calvin Harris and soul-singer John Newman have finally released the music video for their killer track Blame where they’re surrounded by lingerie-clad women…It’s tough at the top you know…
(To watch the video in Creation 5, just tap here.)
Directed by Emil Nava the video opens with the boys at their respective mansions giving the cold shoulder to girls they have just spent the night with. The ending is completely bizarre – the girls dive into water – sinks, ice-buckets, hot tubs – and are all teleported to the same pool miles away. Anyway, without trying to understand it, the visual is beautifully put together and compliments the song perfectly. Although trying to blame it ‘on the night’, instead of the fact that they are such players is questionable… 🙂
Following the song’s worldwide premier last week, it is currently leading the race to the Nº1 spot on the UK charts. If nothing changes from now until Sunday it will be Calvin Harris’s 5th UK Nº1 – I’m Not Alone (2009), Sweet Nothing (2012), Under Control (2013) and Summer (2014).
The track already hit the Nº1 spot on Spotify’s Global Chart – within 3 days of being released, making it the fastest-ever climber to the top.
Blame is the second cut to be taken from Harris’s upcoming new album, following the previous chart topper Summer.
