Bastille’s new album “Wild world” went number one in 20 countries. Now the indie pop band have ready to launch the music video for “Send them off!”.
The label explain the contept of the video: “We see the lead characters decent into a hellish underworld with twisting Domdaniel like corridors, nightmarish scenes and the shadow of Pazuzu-esque demon round every corner. With occult undertones that are reminiscent of scenes from Eyes Wide Shut and Rosemary’s Baby, we see Bastille put a very modern twist on Dante’s Divine Comedy.”
Meanwhile, the band were joined on stage by Craig David during their Apple Music Festival gig At London’s Roundhouse earlier this week. The band performed three songs with the singer: two of their own, plus David’s classic hit “Fill me in”.
Lyrics:
“‘It was a slight on my honor, so he deserved it
‘But we’re talking about the most brilliant mind this world’s ever seen'”
I’ve got demons running round in my head
And they feed on insecurities I have
Won’t you lay your healing hands on my chest?
Let your ritual clean
Soak the ropes with your holy water
Tie me down as you read out the words
Set me free from my jealousy
Won’t you exorcise my mind?
Won’t you exorcise my mind?
I want to be free as I’ll ever be
Exorcise my mind
Help me exorcise my mind
Desdemona, won’t you liberate me?
When I’m haunted by your ancient history
Close these green eyes and watch over as I sleep
Through my darkest of dreams
Be the power to compel me
Hold me closer than anyone before
Set me free from my jealousy
Won’t you exorcise my mind?
Won’t you exorcise my mind?
I want to be free as I’ll ever be
Exorcise my mind
Help me exorcise my mind
I should be thinking ’bout nothing else when I’m with you-ou
With you-ou, ohohoh
I should be thinking ’bout nothing else when I’m with you-ou
With you-ou, ohohoh
“Your mind exists somewhere altogether different; it lives in a world where feelings simply cannot be defined by words”
Set me free from my jealousy
Won’t you exorcise my mind?
Won’t you exorcise my mind?
I want to be free as I’ll ever be
Exorcise my mind
Help me exorcise my mind
Help me exorcise my mind
Won’t you exorcise my mind?
