    " I’m a professional actor, but I’m not a professional musician, so I wanted to do the whole thing really not professionally. So I spent all my own money to make the video and I had to rent the mermaid costume, which ended up being incredibly shitty, but in a way that I think is really funny. (Maya's interview with pitchfork)"
    I love the whole on-a-low-budget feel the MV has. It reminds me of those early 2000s bands who had amazing music but had no record label who would release this self-made music videos. It adds to the nostalgia To Love a Boy already has, and it makes it feel more personal than it already is. I love this song way too much. So jealous, it looked like so much fun filming and i love all the involvement Maya and her friends had in this MV.

    You can see Maya's personality shining through the whole video. She's bubbly, creative and can have a goofy sense of humour too! She explores the idea of naivity of love through her mermaid persona. She is left alone in the "real world" to explore and she is confused and curious and scared and amazed. the real world is loud and confusing. So by the end of the video she comes back to the beach and strips her mermaid persona and goes back to the ocean. I take it the city is a metaphor for love (or the idea we have of it 'cause it can be simple and messy, scary and thrilling), the mermaid is her naivity before falling in love which is why she goes back to the calm and peaceful ocean as a human and not a mermaid. She loves the ocean, she is more mature now yet she wants to recover her naivity. Aesthetically is far from perfect, but the concept is there and she delivers her message. It's a cute video imo, I liked it a lot ❤️ I love Maya, she's so talented and has such a lovely voice 😍

    To Love a Boy
    Maya Hawke
    TO LOVE A BOY LYRICS
    [Verse 1]
    I want to love a boy
    The way I love the ocean
    Wish I was not afraid
    Of all I have that's broken
    I know I must behave
    To contain all my emotion
    But I want to love a boy
    The way I love the ocean
    [Verse 2]
    Like a hidden cave
    I am always open
    I hold the space you made
    I'm empty but still hoping
    I have a feeling
    A terrible fear encroaching
    That' I'll never love a boy
    The way Iove the ocean
    [Verse 3]
    I ask why
    It's better to speak than it is to die
    One more try
    It's better to laugh than it is to lie
    I thought I had a man
    Someone who could hold me
    But nobody can
    I wish someone had told me
    I was born yesterday
    And I'm still wet, still soaking
    And I want to love a boy
    The way I love the ocean
    The way I love the ocean
    The way I love the ocean

Loving someone from distance, wishing on, then fighting with own fears, preferring dreams over reality everything she has written in the lyrics. Thank you so much for these songs, Maya.
