Harry Styles’ music videos are a gift that keeps on giving, and he really outdid himself with his latest visual. The music video for “Satellite” is here, and it tells a Wall-E-style story about an adorable robot looking for love and meaning in the most unusual places.
The video opens with footage of NASA’s Curiosity rover, with a small robot watching over it. A voiceover from Succession’s Brian Cox proclaims, “Curiosity was born on Mars. It has spent over 10 lonely years roaming the surface of the red planet.”
After watching the footage of the Curiosity rover traversing Mars in solitude, the tiny robot embarks on an epic quest to reach its star-crossed lover. It roams from Styles’ concert to busy LA streets and the Las Vegas desert, before ending its journey in a grassy field alongside Styles.
“Satellite” very clearly draws inspiration from the Pixar classic Wall-E, but many believe it’s also the singer’s love letter to his stage crew since the video features many backstage scenes from his concerts at Los Angeles’ Kia Forum.
“Satellite” hails from the singer’s latest studio album Harry’s House, and it serves as its fourth single following the success of “As It Was”, “Late Night Talking”, and “Music for a Sushi Restaurant”.
