Harry lounges on a beach in front of a buffet of fruit and women. There’s a lot of bikinis, erotic fruit-fingering, and tanned limbs dangling in the sand. And of course, there’s lots of watermelons everywhere, which we see being stroked by Harry’s pink polished fingers, being thrown joyfully into the ocean, and placed strategically in front of what Harry actually means when he sings, “I just wanna taste it.”
“Watermelon Sugar” serves as the fourth single off Harry’s sophomore album, Fine Line. The sugary song has peaked at No. 17 on the Billboard Hot 100. Stream Fine Line Below.
