It’s not every week, or every year you see an Irish music video with nudity or graphic sex scenes. We’re still a prudish country after all, and a small one. Spice Burger’s music video for Bouts’ ‘Pliable Me’ features a series of Irish couples engaging in intimate sexual experiences. It’s very NOT SAFE FOR WORK but also, very sweet and very modern. Like Cindy Gallup’s Make Love Not Porn campaign, this isn’t on-screen sex for pornographic reasons but more a realistic depiction of what goes on behind closed doors. Of course, this being Ireland, you’ll probably still be apprehensive to click play in case you might see your neighbour naked but that’s a risk you’ll just have to face.
Bouts‘ debut album Nothing Good Gets Away premiered here last month.
