As he preps to release his debut artist album, Alesso gives us the opportunity to channel our inner comic book hero with new music video for his new track, "Heroes (We Could Be)," featuring vocals from rising Swedish singer Tove Lo. The 23-year-old Grammy-nominated, chart-topping Swedish DJ and the 26-year-old red-hot newcomer Lo are set to wreak serious chart damage with their soaring club anthem, "Heroes (We Could Be)," and Lo's beautiful vocals provide the backdrop for what is another fantastic track from the young Swedish DJ.
Taking about the message behind the lyrics, Alesso said "I believe that the best experiences in life are the ones you share with others. We wanted to write around that topic, when you feel a special bond with someone and can drop everything else to just be yourself together with that person. And especially to encourage one another, to push yourselves forward an appreciate each other's." The song's lyrics are taken from "Heroes" (1977) by David Bowie and the David Bowie-interpolating floorfiller made its debut on the Billboard Hot 100 this week and is already shooting up iTunes. Full volume please!
All it needed was a killer video and the Swedish DJ and the EDM superstar delivered the superhero-themed clip with a special effects-filled extravaganza, where the stunning Lo is a fallen angel, joined by a diverse array of cast-mates, who all portray superhuman powers while being held hostage in an asylum-type facility. In contrast to the radio-friendly track, the video is dark and ends melancholically (fitting for the Halloween season).
Starring the "Habits" hitmaker as a fallen/captured angel, the X-Men referencing visual centers around a bunch of young children who are interned in an underground research lab for their supernatural abilities. Happily, the super suave DJ makes a cameo appearance as the one who comes to their rescue and frees them, breaks Lo out before she literally lets him down. The storyline for the video is the perfect compliment to the powerful vocals of Lo, as well as the emotional instrumental. The ending was quite shocker though!
