As is probably obvious to anyone who regularly follows this blog, I really love good video clips. Why can't I just enjoy the music? I could psychoanalyse my need for a visual companion for hours. But at the end of the day I think I'm just part of the MTV generation (from when they still played music, obviously). Pure and simple. Anyway, this is the new Lisa Mitchell video. Feels a little bit odd that the video is being released about 4 months after the single, but I suppose this can only boost her recognition. The footage is stunning, and was directed by Vanessa Caswill who also shot Mitchell's previous clip for Neopolitan Dreams. This was no surprise, as both capture the mysterious, feminine and off beat personality of Mitchell completely.

Meanwhile, the clip also utilises the talent of London folk singer Johnny Flynn. And my what talent that is. I first heard his name from Laura Marling when she covered his track The Wrote and The Writ for Triple J's Like a Version. She gave him big props and from what I gather this is one very underrated artist. And very gorgeous. Check out this duet with Marling herself:
