Calvin Harris and Haim Release 'Pray To God' Video
. (Radio.com) For the video to his latest single, "Pray to God," Calvin Harris taps into the witchy woman side of the HAIM sisters. Our opening shot finds the three standing, MacBeth style, in a trifecta and wearing all black while giving dead stares straight to the camera. The green screen behind them goes from an eerie sunset to a landscape of snow-capped mountains. The hugeness of the vista and the amount of screen the sisters take up is meant to imply something about their control over nature. It's all very Wiccan. And that's when the animals come in. We get a wolf. We get a rabbit. A brown bear lumbers in, roaring and throwing its weight around as its movements replicate those of Danielle Haim. A lion, an eagle and a stallion follow in the parade of power animals. The medieval witchy woman vibe is strong, even though there are no cats, the supposed favored familiar. In the end, there is no resolution. No action either. The video is compiled of sense-memory type flashes where we get impressions of these women. The non-narrative actually gives them strength, because they face no foes. It also opens a quick path to a sequel, for the next Calvin Harris/HAIM collabo. Watch it here.
