Gill Sandell (of The Red Clay Halo) and I are about to embark on a duo headline tour of Germany, with a couple of shows in the Netherlands too. To celebrate, we made this little video of ourselves playing the title track of the album - hope you enjoy it as much as all the outtakes prove that we did (we might share those with you another time!)...

Id had the idea that the video should simply be me sitting on a chair out in a field singing the song. On the day before filming the video, life once again - and this time quite literally - came breaking in; I was knocked off my bicycle in a hit-and-run incident, which left me with a fractured tibia. The filming plans were put on hold. Once I was able to hobble around in a moon boot, with a crutch, the video became about the struggle through real physical pain to carry that chair up a hill to a place where I end up sitting, looking out into the sun. Filmed and edited by Robin Bottrell Recorded at The Wool Hall with producer Luke Potashnick I can fall, face up I won’t kick, I won’t buck I can sit in the pain It still rhymes well with rain To be clear, you are gone Got the crossword wrong Red pen, red pen Thought we’d pull through I’m a backseat driver, I can’t stop you Throwin’ eight years, three months out the window White geraniums that won’t get watered It’s a lot to let go of I won’t call anymore About the crack in the wall About the bread that I burnt Or the rush hour to work There’s a note that I found In a book on the ground And it read as if we would pull through I’m a backseat driver, I can’t stop you Throwin’ eight years, three months out the window White geraniums that won’t get watered It’s a lot to let go of A lot to let go of White geraniums that won’t get watered It’s a lot to let go of A lot to let go of I can fall, face up I won’t kick, I won’t buck I can sit in the pain It still rhymes well with rain #indiefolk$
