The "Skin" video is beautifully choreographed, by Annarita Mazzilli, who choreographed and danced in Maz's video "Emma". The dance moves are quite stylised and fit well with the song, highlighting the ambiguity between gentle loving contact and more aggressive contact when fighting. At the end, there is a close up of Maz's face with a tear welling in her eye, and I realised that I too had a tear forming. Not quite sure what I found so emotional about some people dancing, never really been a fan of dance, but there is something in this video that I found quite emotional."

"Skin is about what it's like to be a young woman in this society ... Our bodies are scrutinised and we' re under pressure everyday to be perfect, And it's hard to be a young person in this country. I hope the song will offer a catharsis to people." Maz O'Connor
