Little Mix – “Wings” Music Video
Published July 25th 2012
Filed under Videos
The music video for Little Mix’s debut single Wings (not counting their X Factor winners single), premiered today.
The video is very Cher Lloyd. By that I mean it’s clearly aimed at a young audience and features a lot of colourful cartoon squiggles and lines layered on top of the video. Cher Lloyd’s Swagger Jagger had similar effects.
The video comes across quite amateurish, which is allowed considering it’s a debut single but the girls seemed a lot more established and experienced on The X Factor and this doesn’t come across in the video. They also came across much more mature on The X Factor. However, it’s nice to see a girlband’s debut video for the first time and already know who they are and what kind of personalities they have, and the video manages to get this across.
You can watch the video for Wings below:
Wings is finally going to be released in the UK on August 19th. For such an important release for the girls, this single campaign has really been dragged out.
