Alec Benjamin – “Pick Me” music video
“Is it lyin’ if I add a couple inches to my height? Say I’m 5’11 when I’m really just 5’9. Am I tryin’ too hard, tell me with these tired pick-up lines. Baby, when you fell from heaven, did it hurt or are you fine? We can say that we met at a party or at the park, or through our friend Charlie. Somethin’ we’ll probably forget and then have to make up again. We can say that we met doin’ yoga or at the coffee shop over mochas.” – lyrics
Shot in Los Angeles, the accompanying music video reunites Alec Benjamin with director Matt Trainor (who lensed Benjamin’s last video, “I Sent My Therapist To Therapy”). Set against the backdrop of a charming diner, the visual mirrors the essence of “Pick Me” emphasizing the search for an authentic connection in a world dominated by digital facades.
“Pick Me” is infused with enchanting guitar melodies and Benjamin’s signature introspective lyricism. He crafts a compelling narrative of desire and recognition within the expansive landscape of relationships, delving fearlessly into the digital dance of online dating.
“Pick me if you need a guy within a hundred miles.”
“This song is about the way we represent ourselves – and the lies we sometimes tell – on dating apps to seem more appealing to other people. At the end of the day, we often discover that the best version of ourselves is the real version, and sharing our authentic selves with others is what creates meaningful connections.” – Alec Benjamin explained
“Pick Me” is the latest offering from Alec Benjamin’s upcoming third studio album, which is set for release later this year.
