The music video for Switzerland’s Eurovision entry has been released.
Today the official music video for “Stones” was released, featuring a slightly revamped version of the song. The instrumentation has been tweaked, and Zibbz will sing this version at the Eurovision Song Contest in Lisbon, Portugal this May.
According to Zibbz, their song has a clear message:
Bullying stops people from dreaming. It happens everywhere and, of course, putting yourself down is also a form of bullying.
The pair wrapped up filming the video at the end of February, which took place in Los Angeles, California, where the siblings reside.
Zibbz were selected to represent Switzerland at this year’s Eurovision Song Contest after they won the Swiss national final show, a staggering 88 points ahead of second place. At the contest, they will be singing their song “Stones”. Get to know more about the duo here.
