Dermot Kennedy - The Making of ‘Kiss Me’ | Vevo Footnotes

"When the world is falling apart, love can still sustain you." That's Dermot Kennedy's synopsis of the message behind "Kiss Me." The Irish singer, an expert balladeer, waxes uptempo on this pop-slanted gem, part of his acclaimed 'Ponder' album from last November. "I've always written these songs that feel big, like they have this imagery, and so it be quite disappointing when a music video doesn't match that. You always want to bring things to life in the most, not epic, but the most powerful way possible. I thought [directing duo AB/CD/CD] and I had a similar vision. When you collaborate with somebody, you want them to be as excited as you. They brought a lot of enthusiasm, and I appreciated that."
