Carly Rae Jepsen and her friends blow kisses to the camera in the just-released new video for her mid-tempo single, "This Kiss," the third single taken from her second studio album and first international release, "Kiss." The 'Call Me Maybe' singer is well on her way to becoming an incredibly successful Canadian pop star - just like her mentor, Justin Bieber. Can you imagine how proud Canadians must be of this 26-year-old whose sound is crisp and clear and whose lyrics are nothing if not clean and fun?
As sweet and as cavity-causing as 'Call Me Maybe,' Jepsen wrote with LMFAO's RedFoo and her boyfriend Matthew Koma, "This Kiss" is a catchy modern disco-pop number which lyrically speaks about a kiss being something Jepsen can't resist and as undeniable as the lips of the lyrical object of affection who isn't the boy she has back home with despite the fact both of them are engaged in relationships with others. Jepsen's vocals on the track have a girly feel that endears her to young pop fans. Sure this one will monopolize the airwaves like her last song, but with the dance beat and vocal effects, Jepsen is going for dance floor domination as well.
Jepsen explained to MTV News why she named her album after this track. "I was at an interview once, and someone just came out and asked me, 'What's your album going to be called?' and I was like, 'Kiss', and that was how I decided," she explained."It really is an album about love, flirtation and the beginnings of things and it felt like it really suited it. There's a track called 'This Kiss' on the album, which I think is probably my favorite song so that's probably why."
Directed by Justin Francis, the concept for the "This Kiss" music video is girls night out and they'll party like there's no tomorrow. The video featuring Jepsen hits up a lively Halloween bash with her girlfriends, put on their best clothes, get pretty, and get to this super hipster nightclub on a Fiat 500, where Jepsen performing the track at a party, and enjoying a photo shoot with friends before running off with a photographer in a grey beanie. The video ends with the pair jumping into a swimming pool with him and kissing underwater.
