When 3OH!3 and Ke$ha meet in the video for "My First Kiss" (the lead single off of 3OH!3's upcoming album, Streets of Gold) you get a lot of what you'd expect from this meeting of the minds: a grab bag of imagery on top of a wave of innuendo.
Directed by Isaac Ravishankara, the clip features taxidermy, makeout sessions, 3OH!3 in all their '80s fashion glory (satin jackets with the sleeves rolled up) and Ke$ha rocking gold lipstick. Bottom line? It's exuberant as all get out.
Let's face it: The video had to be mind-boggling to match the energy of the song. Produced by pop wizard Benny Blanco, "My First Kiss" features "We Will Rock You" drums, power chords and gang vocals. If this was playing during my first kiss I'd be way too distracted by the jam in the background to seal the deal.
