Genre-blending pop rock band Babygirl have released their new single “You Were In My Dream Last Night” alongside its cinematic, retro horror and old Hollywood infused music video. CLICK HERE to listen to the track which draws listeners into the quiet sadness of waking to an empty bed after a post-breakup dream and CLICK HERE to watch the Dylan Mitro directed video, a love letter to the demons of past relationships that visit us during the night.
“’You Were in My Dream Last Night’ is about the experience of having a vivid dream where everything works out and then the cruel joke of waking up to realize that it doesn’t all work out,” says Babygirl. “We wanted the production to capture the sweetness and the sadness of this experience. When you fall in love for the first time, it’s really hard to imagine it’s ever going to end. And when it does, that idea of “forever” is still lodged somewhere in your subconscious. You visit it and watch it disappear all over again.”
“The idea of a “date with death” resonated with us for a few reasons,” Babygirl continues on the inspiration for the video. “Kiki thinks about death a lot, so this idea felt like a healthy way to try and make friends with that fear. Death is a manifestation of the end of a relationship, and Kiki is revisiting that feeling in her dream and finding the sweet side to it. It was very important to us to capture that sense of humor and lightness despite how scary it can be.”
