“TEETHING”

 
Singer-songwriter and doula Domino Kirke has unveiled the official video for her song “Teething”, offering a raw and tender visual companion to the track which has gotten traction from its recent use in soundtracking a pivotal scene in Netflix's popular drama YOU. The video, directed by Gregory Mitnick, depicts students learning about childbirth, something that Kirke feels is an important piece missing from mainstream education.

Originally released on Kirke’s album The Most Familiar Star, “Teething” was written at a time when she was navigating motherhood and stepping fully into her identity as both a parent and a doula. Sparse, honest, and emotionally rich, the song has become a unique touchstone for those exploring birth not just as a physical process, but as a transformative emotional experience.
 
"For as long as I’ve worked as a Doula, I’ve felt it was vitally important for high schoolers to have not only Sex Education but also Childbirth Education." says Kirke. "Now, I know some schools have occasionally shown films like “The Miracle of Life,” but I never felt like that particular film accurately depicts birth. I think various birth experiences should be shown as a regular part of the curriculum in health class. Not only are the visuals an excellent form of birth control, but they root kids in the reality of how we got here. We were all born."
 
The video mirrors the song’s themes of vulnerability and growth. “Teething” also gained wider recognition when it was featured in Season 4 of Netflix’s YOU. Produced by Chris Taylor of Grizzly Bear and co-written with longtime collaborator Timo Ellis, “Teething” blends haunting melodies with poetic lyricism, sitting comfortably beside the work of artists like Feist and Sharon Van Etten.
 
"Getting all these kids into a room to watch a childbirth video has always been a dream of mine. What would it wake up in them?" Kirke continues. "What would they remember or be reminded of? How do we let teenagers know that we’re here for them, stay tethered to them the way they need when our culture tells them to be, and do the exact opposite? Birth is the ultimate unifier, like death. We remember our births in our cells. Do you know your birth story?"
