Last month, Danish singer-songwriter MØ's second EP "When I Was Young" and the title-track were released via Sony Music. On November 9, the music video was premiered online, directed by J.A.C.K.
On the video, she played different three persons by herself at the same time, inspired by Norwegian painter Edvard Munch's "The Dance Of Life".
About the video, MØ wrote on YouTube channel;
"I'm so happy to present this video because it feels very true to the song and to who I am. It was inspired by a painting called 'The Dance Of Life' by one of my favorite artists, Edvard Munch. It's an illustration of three women-one in white, one in red and one in black-and tells a story about three stages of human life: youth, maturity, and old age. I was always drawn to this image as a kid due to its simple symbolism and emotion and have been dying to do a video that could reflect on it. Since 'When I Was Young' is all about nostalgia and reflecting on life-especially the past, but also the now and the future-it just seemed like the perfect time to do it. J.A.C.K. came up with the idea of me playing all three women at the same time, dancing the dance of life, seduced, intrigued and fooled by each other, and they took this whole idea to levels I couldn't even have dreamed of."- The EP contains six brand new songs, working with Kristoffer Fogelmark, FTSE, Grant William Russell Harris, Mantra, Albin Neder, Fridolin Nordsø, Vera and Vasco. It was written and recorded over the past several months in Copenhagen, London, New York and beyond.
She announced a co-headlining North American tour with Cashmere Cat titled the "Meøw Tour" in support of the EP. The tour will take place from January to February of 2018.
