Synopsis

A glamorous cross-dressing character prepares for a night out, carefully applying makeup, adjusting stockings, and stepping into an after-hours persona. The video follows Baby through Barcelona's streets, bars, and familiar haunts as the character moves between private preparation and public performance. The Kills appear in drag, singing along amid the nocturnal atmosphere, while the song's brooding, repetitive pulse gives the whole journey a detached and sensual mood.

Factoids & Trivia

  • The video was filmed in Barcelona, Spain.
  • Production reportedly followed Baby for 24 hours around local haunts, giving the footage a documentary-like quality rather than the polished feel of a conventional studio performance.
  • The drag version of The Kills was cast and filmed in Barcelona alongside the central character.
  • "Baby Says" was the third single from The Kills' fourth studio album, "Blood Pressures," which was released in 2011.
  • The single package included "Willow Weep for Me" and a live acoustic version of "Baby Says" recorded at KUT Austin.
  • The official video was released during the band's "Blood Pressures" campaign in late 2011.
