Allow a spectacular splash of pinks, magentas and violets to take you down the memory lane of the eighties. Borrowing its aesthetic and approach to storytelling from the past era, Hey Babe becomes a sweet offering that presents a glimpse into some notable moments of dance, music and the artistic ambience the time period eventually came to be associated with.
Introducing us to the life of a young woman, and mapping her journey from rejection in love to immense professional success, the music video portrays it all, all along maintaining its fidelity to the aesthetic established so far. The lovely palette of the visuals is especially welcomed in a world marked by the grim reality of a pandemic that ensured bleakness threatened to consume the horizon of creativity.
