LISTEN: Carly Rae Jepsen Sings Her Song “Run Away With Me” In The Language Of The Sims

Carly Rae Jepsen’s new song has nothing to do with the way she sings it as just the audio alone, rather the music video to it is completely different than what a normal person would expect. The music video uses one of the most interesting platforms to date, the newly created Sims 4 game. The entire music video itself is in the tried and true Simlish, the language in the game. The Sim language is considered nonsense, but there are some Scandinavian and German references when you play the game on just the single speed.

Jepsen’s single “Run Away With Me” from her album, E•MO•TION, is song about a first chance meeting with someone at a party and now Jepsen wants to do more than just party, she wants to have some fun with them by going somewhere else for the night, whether at is living on cloud 9 hyped up on booze or even drugs to the potential thought about sexual encounters. The single “Run Away With Me” by Jepsen and other songs from musicians Zedd, Tori Kelly, and Givers, recorded their songs in Simlish for the Sims 4 expansion pack.

However, Jepsen is not the only one to use such creative liberty as the Sims game. Lilly Allen’s single “Smile” was used to make Simlish “Smile” video for the song. Allen was making a contest where the fan with the most creative Sims video for her single, would receive a free game. But also going from Allen and Jepsen, there have been people such as Depeche Mode and Pussycat Dolls that have used the Sims game to make a music video or even have fans make the music video with the game itself to win cool prizes for their efforts.
