It's Valentine's Day, and you know what that means: Love is in the air. As is cuddling. And candy. And probably, like, if you play your cards right, some light frottage. Pretty much as soon as Hiko Momoji's "Late Nights," featuring Awful Records' Father and Abra, came out a couple weeks ago, it was clear that it was the preeminent love song of the season, since it's about naked cuddling and watching Netflix together. Father raps "why we got our clothes on" in such a persuasive deadpan that I assume it's not legal to perform this song live (due to the nudity it would cause).Anyway, the moral of the story is that modern love is beautiful. Modern love is the kind of thing that will have you texting #bae about this new song with Father on it and calling it a #cuddleanthem. Modern love is all about reckless Snapchatting. Modern love is mostly about nudes. Happy Valentine's Day!But while Father and Abra's vocals will have you and whoever's hand is under that blanket with you ready to do something inappropriate, "Late Nights" isn't just their work. It's actually a single by New York via London artist Hiko Momoji, off his debut EP Howl. This is the first Hiko Momoji video, and it is great. You will definitely be in love with at least one person involved in the making of this song by the time you're done watching it. And hopefully also in love with whoever you're watching Netflix with right after. Watch it below, eat some candy hearts, and forward to your loved ones. It's V-Day, folks!Follow Kyle Kramer on Twitter.
