There
is also this really nice video of Noah and the Whale performing Blue Skies
live, so I've put the video below for everyone to watch. There is a great bit
of explanation about the concept, by some members of the band at the end of the
video. I find that it helps to understand the creative drive of the band, which
inspired the lyrics and even though our group wants to create something
completely different and unique, it would be very hard not to follow some of
the essence of the original, otherwise it won't fit with the song. I think one
of the main reasons why, our group decided this was the best song for us to
use, is primarily based on the beautiful lyrics. In my opinion it’s a heart-warming
song, but there is room to contrast this image; which would be an interesting
challenge. I don't think I'll get bored of this song, during the long editing
process. Unlike last year, when I produced a promo video for The Wombats-
Tokyo, having to edit it constantly makes the repetitive nature of the song
annoying. It sort of puts you off the song you liked so much in the first
place.
