Welcome to the second of a dual part music video.
This song is one of my most favourite that was made by Free Will, mainly because of its vintage feel and also because of the deep meaningful lyrics behind it.
The main chorus lyrics ask one of life's questions:
"You wanna succeed, you wanna be free but what does that mean?"
My treatment approach for this videos narrative was to follow the story of a protagonist performed by the lead singer.
As mentioned in my previous blog, this second music video has many connections to the first as our protagonist crosses paths with the homeless character.
A lot of the performances by the lead singer Luke are simply a theatrical representation of the lyrics.
The lyrics themselves are vague and impartial to anyone, it could really be open to all sorts of interpretations. The visual narrative helps put things into perspective as the protagonist reflects on himself through the homeless character of the previous video.
I get the feeling these two music videos are one of a kind as they both go hand in hand with visual connotations and they each serve a key purpose for both comical 'toilet humor' and exploring human faith.
The previous music video blog is for 'Clearly Beautiful' and you can view it here
