Synopsis
Eyedress drifts through a dim, dreamlike space alongside actress Alessandra de Rossi. The video favors atmosphere over narrative, using languid movements, shadowy close-ups, hazy lighting and striking outfits to create an intimate, hypnotic mood. The performers appear to float between wakefulness and reverie as the song's soft vocals and synths unfold. Rather than illustrating the title literally, the clip turns its romantic, slightly melancholic lyrics into a slow visual meditation on closeness, memory and emotional escape.
Factoids & Trivia
- The video first circulated online in November 2012, while the official Eyedress upload was published on October 30, 2013.
- The official video credits Cameron Clark as producer and James Go as director of photography.
- Actress Alessandra de Rossi is the video's featured performer.
- Music coverage at the time emphasized the clip's half-lit setting, relaxed physicality and flamboyant clothing, qualities that reinforce the track's hazy, slow-drifting character.
- "Everything We Touch Turns Into Gold" appears on Hearing Colors, Eyedress' early mixtape-length release. The track was singled out by reviewers for its emotive loop, watery synth textures and processed vocals.
- The song's lyric centers on needing time, fearing that a relationship may become ordinary, and continuing to think about one person. The video responds with mood and repetition rather than a literal Midas-touch storyline.
