Xavier Dolan directs a rousing promo for Elton John & Brandi Carlile.The video for Swing For The Fences is an emotional exploration of sensuality and liberation. Featuring a brilliant dance performance at its core, the video ponders religion, expression and societal expectations with a stunning, anachronistic aesthetic. The track itself is an anthem for LGBT+ youth, and this theme is explored through the presence of an enigmatic love interest in the latter part of the video. Imagining a life of love, sensuality and freedom, it's a brilliant - and important - video, especially with LGBT+ rights being dismantled in the US and across the world.
