World premiere exclusive! Ari Gold's "I Can Forgive You"

Following his four consecutive No. 1 music videos and his "Video of the Year" on the LOGO Network, pioneering indie recording artist Ari Gold is set to debut his newest music video and his first video ballad, for "I Can Forgive You," directed by Christopher Ciccone, who has notably directed other videos by legendary musicians like Dolly Parton and Tony Bennett, and has designed and directed two of Madonna's most influential concert tours.

We're happy to present it right here at AfterElton.com, for the first time anywhere! Check out "I Can Forgive You" after the break!

Here's what Gold had to say about working with Christopher Ciccone:

"It makes so much sense to me that behind some of the best work that the world's biggest living gay icon, Madonna, has ever done was a gay man," says Gold. "Everyone from Britney Spears to Christina Aguilera to Lady Gaga has been influenced by Christopher Ciccone's work, and since I am such a visible gay artist myself, why not go to the source? I think the simplicity of the video really brings home the song's powerful message of forgiveness."
