#NewMusic Jhené Aiko – While We’re Young

Just hours after dropping “While We’re Young,”  Jhené Aiko releases the video, reminiscing on Adam Sandler’s “50 First Dates.” Directed by Jay Ahn,  Aiko plays the role of a beautiful woman with short-term memory loss.

Here are some of the lyrics.

[Verse 1]
Baby while we’re young
I think we should do something crazy
Like say “Fuck everyone”
And just run away from the daily routine
Yeah you know what I mean

[Pre-Chorus]
I’m tellin’ everybody you’re mine and I like it
And I really hope you don’t mind, I can’t fight it
No, you know I cannot hide it ’cause I am so excited
That I finally decided on you

Throughout the video, her male suitor isn’t deterred from trying to make Aiko realize they have gone on multiple dates, and know each other, and how he makes her love him everyday. In th end, w she asks him if he loves her, he adds: “Love? Love is a heavy word. I get up every morning, go to this restaurant, and you’re there. Yeah, I love you.”

 

Watch the video below.
