Featured Video - Clean Bandit Feat Zara Larsson: Symphony
This video for Clean Bandit's “Symphony", features a gay love story in an emotional heart-wrenching video that can’t help but leave you sobbing. Keep the tissues nearby!
The single, featuring Zara Larsson, shows a grieving man after his partner apparently dies after a road accident. As the glamorous Larsson sings in front of an orchestra, you begin to see that the director is none other than the grieving man. Through the performance, he finally gets his chance to say farewell to his lost partner.
It's one of the few music videos out there showing gay men of colour in every day healthy relationships just loving and living. Of course, the movie trope hits and one dies... but this is a beautiful diverse video on love and loss. This one will give you all the feels.
