Unlike their usual pop-style self, Little Mix have unveiled a rather more emotional looking black and white video for their ode to female empowerment, "Little Me," the second single off British girl group's upcoming sophomore album "Salute," which is due to hit stores in the US on February 4. The fabulous four - Leigh-Anne Pinnock, Jesy Nelson, Jade Thirlwall, and Perrie Edwards - are caught in a derelict building as they belt out their heartfelt tune about going back in time to give words of encouragement to their younger selves.
This stripped-back ballad finds Little Mix singing about what they'd say to their younger selves, given the chance. They would encourage their 'little me' to speak up for themselves and stand tall. This samples at the start and end of the song the melody from French composer Faure's "Pavane." Nelson explained that the girls wrote the track as advice for their young fans: "'Little Me' is about how there are so many things you used to worry about when you were little," she said. "Just the stupidest little things, and then as you get older you just think back and go 'I wish I'd have done this or I wish I'd done that.'"
The '90s throwback masters Little Mix have been known for their uplifting tunes, and now with new single "Little Me," the girls are set to prove that girl power is here to stay. After the success of the sassy lead single "Move," the new track which the girls describe as "the baby to 'Change Your Life'" embodies the band's important message to be yourself and to never give up. While "Move" saw the gals getting all sassy with a bunch of fit guys and flashy lights, Little Me's all stripped-back, moody and meaningful. The song has an inspiring message of what you would tell yourself when you were younger, and the video intermixes it with different people's "little me" messages.
In the inspiring video, we meet group of adorable young girls talk about what they want to be when they grow up, and tell stories of their aspirations, struggles and how they overcame their obstacles. As the clip introduces us to more little kids with big dreams, Little Mix moodily sing the words to "Little Me" while camped out in a dingy warehouse. "We wanted to have a song for the fans to relate to, but also for us to relate to as well," Pinnock explained to their new clip. "I think we've all been through it, you want to tell your little self 'Don't worry, the spots are going to go away.' 'Don't worry, they're picking on you now but you're gonna be a superstar in ten years time.'"
