Watch Perfume Genius’ Video for New Song “On the Floor”

Music, News

Perfume Genius has shared “On the Floor,” the latest song from Set My Heart on Fire Immediately. In the self-directed video, Mike Hadreas dances on a mud path, first alone and then with a partner who splits from his body. Check it out below.

“A crush can really live on its own, separate from you and the person you are pining for,” Hadreas said in a press release. “The fantasy feels like its own world, obsession can turn the person you are longing for in to a monument that has less and less to do with them and more to do with the idea of love itself and what it can do, what it can soothe or quiet or light on fire. I wanted to show that maddening, solitary part of desire but keep the core which is a real warmth and belief that you have something crucial to share with each other.”

As of Monday morning (March 16), Perfume Genius is set to support Tame Impala on a spring tour of North America.
