about this song
Through plinking, synthesized steel drums, seductive lyrics, and Karin’s throaty, aching vocals, “Pass This On” paints a picture of obsessive desire—with more than a hint that there is something unusual about this situation. The music video, which features a drag queen performing the song at a local football club meeting, adds an intriguing context to the song. Combined with the hints at bisexuality in the lyrics, The Knife seem to be simultaneously challenging homophobia and creating an air of intrigue around queer sexuality.
