British electro pop trio Years & Years have unveiled the video for “Worship”, the eighth and final single from number one debut album “Communion”.
The clip is directed by Matt Lambert, who has previously directed videos for Patrick Wolf and Hercules And Love Affair.
It’s choreographed by Ryan Heffington, a choreographer best known for his work with the likes of Sia and Arcade Fire.
Frontman Olly Alexander explains the video and the collaboration with Lambert and Heffington: “I want to stare down fear and intolerance with the queer eyes in my queer face. I want to try to not be afraid. I know I’ll make mistakes, but I want to keep going. I’ve seen the incredible amount of support and love from our fans and I’ve learnt a lot from them. I can only hope that the dialogue continues and we trust each other enough to carry on.”
Lyrics:
Wanna be here tonight
Wanna hide in your light
Wanna cover my eyes, I feel you reflect in me
I worship all that you see
Can I still make it right?
Can I be what you like?
Can I keep up this fight?
I hope that you’ll never know
Why I need your control
(I’m holy I want you to know it)
You’re all I need to survive
(I’m holy I want you to know it)
Blind devotion
(I’m holy I want you to know it)
And you’ll be my sacrifice
(I’m holy I want you to know it)
You say you love…
I worship, high praises
My longing drives me crazy for you
My kingdom for your graces
I’m not gonna tell nobody
I’m not gonna tell nobody bout you
I’m not gonna tell nobody bout you
Gotta hold my head up
Gotta move for your touch
Gotta keep my lips shut
I’ll do what you tell me to
Cause in darkness I follow you
I follow you
(I’m holy I want you to know it)
You’re all I need to survive
(I’m holy I want you to know it)
Blind devotion
(I’m holy I want you to know it)
And you’ll be my sacrifice
(I’m holy I want you to know it)
You say you love…
I worship, high praises
My longing drives me crazy for you
My kingdom for your graces
I’m not gonna tell nobody
I’m not gonna tell nobody bout you
Just tell me how I can prove
I’m the one for your fire
And I’ll take you higher
I’ll do it for you
And you can worship me too
(I’m holy I want you to know it)
(I’m holy I want you to know it)
(I’m holy I want you to know it)
(I’m holy I want you to know it)
(I’m holy I want you to know it)
(I’m holy I want you to know it)
(I’m holy I want you to know it)
I worship, high praises
My longing drives me crazy for you
My kingdom for your graces
I’m not gonna tell nobody
I’m not gonna tell nobody bout you
I worship, high praises
My longing drives me crazy for you
My kingdom for your graces
I’m not gonna tell nobody
I’m not gonna tell nobody bout you
I’m not gonna tell nobody bout you
