We the Kings Debut "Say You Like Me" Video

We The Kings just changed the game. No, literally! the four-piece powerpop band's new interactive music video "Say You Like Me" just made it impossible for regular old music videos to ever be cool again. The song comes as the Florida natives second single from their third album "Sunshine State of Mind," that was released back in July. A gang of bad guys has kidnapped the girl! It's up to We The Kings and you to rescue her!
Pop punk quartet are bringing a reggae twist to their cheerful new love song "Say You Like Me." The tune starts off slow, with lead vocalist Travis Clark's vocals and simple guitar picking as the lone elements. During the intro, Clark sweetly sings to the shy, nice girl that has completely captivated him. The turn soon picks up into a catchy blend of reggae, pop and rock. The pre-chorus might just be the catchiest part of the entire track, as Clark's effortless, roll-off-the-tongue vocals are paired with the light-hearted fusion of beating drums and a longing, melodic guitar.
We The Kings spent a week in Israel's Tel Aviv filming the video's green-screen footage and dreaming of the finished product. It creates an alternate reality where band members become video game avatars that fans can control. For once in your life you can actually have power over a famous musician! Adding yet another level of customization, fans can pick their band member, and in either easy, medium or hard mode, while trying to save the heroine from the bad guys. The music will end if your character dies.
"We've grown up in the world of gaming," Clark told Billboard.com. "It's one of those ideas that you think, right off the bat, 'It's going to be impossible.' We ended up making this music video that honestly believe might change the music video world forever." We The Kings' new video could be a real game-changer. The video combines music and gaming and allows viewers to take control of the band members to save their love interest from a kidnapping. To reach the end, they must play through sequences in the style of video games ranging from "Mortal Kombat" to "Wii Sports." Have fun!
