Song |
"Firestone" is a song by Norwegian DJ Kygo featuring vocals from Australian singer Conrad Sewell. Released on 1 December 2014, the single reached number one on VG-lista, the official Norwegian Singles Chart and became a big international hit for Kygo on many other charts.[6] Birdy performed a cover of the song on BBC Radio 1's Live Lounge.[7]
Music video
The music video was released on Kygo's official Vevo channel on 9 March 2015, where it has gained over 100 million views as of October 2015. The video starts with an attractive young woman (played by Rachel Echelberger, contestant of America's Next Top Model cycle 13) bumping into a young man, who pulls him in and seems about to kiss him before walking off with a suggestive display. He is entranced, and follows her through a series of doors that open up into different scenes, such as a forest, parties (where Kygo is seen playing music), a pool, and the dry riverbed in Los Angeles. They briefly reconnect at one of the parties before she leaves again. As he steps up the chase, she continues running, and when he appears to have lost her for good, he loses his temper. However, after he sees her walking casually by in a rugged warehouse loft, the chase continues. At the end of the video he ends up at the same location where they first met, but on exiting the next door, he finds her standing alone on a building rooftop in the city, where he meets her as the video fades.[8]
