Degrassi Season 17 Promotion Music Video

New Romantics - Taylor Swift

The video starts with the students entering the Casual School Dance as "New Romantics" by Taylor Swift begins to the play, the camera moving out from the sign for the dance. It's dark, only lit by a few lights positioned to resemble stars. Student council volunteers are taking tickets as excitement floods across the faces of a group of students. They enter as the camera rushes to the first scene.

(Verse)
Miles enters standing in the door way looking for Milo. He sees Milo standing across the room by himself. Miles smiles and walks over to him. Just as he reaches Milo, a girl, appearing to be a friend, steals him away, Milo not even noticing Miles. Miles purses his lips and shakes his head in frustration.

The camera moves to Kitty on the dance floor, dancing her heart out, smiling with her eyes closed. Esme walks up to her grinning. She tugs on her arm and pulls her in, Esme puts her hand to Kitty's ear, telling her a secret as Esme side stares Miles. Kitty giggles.

The camera quickly shifts to Henri and Hunter slow dancing to the right of Sophie and Zig. Sophie and Zig are smiling at each other as the camera turns to Henri and Hunter. Hunter is smiling, Henri looks as if she is uncertain about something.

Winston is fixing his jacket as if he's trying to impress someone with his looks. Lindsay backs up as Winston does the same. They bump into each other and turn to apologize and then look at each other, they slowly start to smile to each other and move closer.

(Chorus)
The camera closes up on Bentley putting an ecstasy tablet onto his tongue then zooms out to Bentley and Rose standing opposite each other. Rose is glaring and shaking her head at him, her arms folded. She pushes his shoulders aggressively as he smiles and puts his up at 90 degrees, turning his head away, mouthing "whoa." Rose rolls her eyes and storms off.

The camera passes Frankie and Nilo dancing, turning to Goldi, shaking her head. She looks out of the corner of her eye to see a shadow and she grows fearful.

Miles approaches Milo again, but just as he's about to get his attention, Kitty pulls Milo back onto the dance floor. Miles glares in disbelief.

(Verse)
The camera turns to the edge of the dance floor where Danielle is watching Olivia fixing Hannah's hair. Eloise and her posey pass the pair. Hannah smiles wide and ditches Olivia, who isn't finished fixing her hair. Olivia looks upset as Danielle rests her hand on Olivia's shoulder.

Grace runs up to Nikki excited. They grab each other's hands and smile. Grace leans in to kiss her on the lips, but Nikki turns away, Grace kissing her cheek. Grace pulls away, looking confused. Nikki smiles playfully, shrugging her shoulders.

The camera pans to Garrett and Zoe in a corner, holding hands and smiling at each other. Zoe turns away, looking at her hand, which is full of condoms. She grins at them, and then tosses them into trash can. She turns back to Garrett, who turns back to her, and smile at each other as they walk to the dance floor. Ricky and Lola runs passed them, laughing as the camera pans to the next scene.

(Chorus)
Tristan is dancing with Chess. They're looking at each other, smiling. Chess takes Tristan's hand and writes a plus sign on his hand and then closes it. Tristan opens his hand and looks at the sign. He looks up at Chess in confusion as Chess grins, disappearing into the crowded dance floor. Tristan stares in confusion.

Miles once again sees Milo across the dance floor. He marches over, determined to get his attention. He reaches for Milo's arm, but, once again, Milo walks away. Miles sighs in frustration, running his fingers through his hair. Esme watches from behind, looking as if she's about to burst into tears.

Tori and Maya are standing at the punch table, looking for Angus. Angus approaches them, trying to fake a smile. Maya mouths "what's wrong," but Angus shakes his head, kisses her forehead, and walks away. Maya tries to run after him, but Tori grabs her arm, pulling her away. Maya looks melancholy as she watches Angus walk away.

(Bridge)
The camera pans to the dance floor, where Miles sees Milo for the last time, dancing alone. Miles marches over and takes Milo's hand. Milo turns and smiles at Miles worried stricken face. Miles sighs heavily. Milo smiles at him, and caresses his face. Miles smiles at him, touching his hand. Milo leans in and kisses Miles on the lips.

(Chorus)
The camera focuses on Violet's face, she's unenthused on being at the dance. The camera quickly zooms out to reveal everyone dancing on the dance floor, scattered. The camera focuses on each character and situation, some smiling and kissing each other, some dancing and having a good time, others with looks of confusion, hurt, and disappointment on their faces. The camera pans above the crowd.
