Night time Skies is a tune I don’t wish to be too open about – it’s reasonably non-public and I believe while you move right into a tune’s that means an excessive amount of it may spoil the paintings you installed writing the lyrics. I write songs to take a look at and create imagery, for other people to conjure up their very own opinion of what the lyrics imply – if I get started explaining the whole thing then it destroys that.
However I will be able to say, that it’s about human beings battle with psychological well being, one thing that may’t be mentioned sufficient! It must be stated, and I’m satisfied pronouncing it, there is not any getting back from suicide, to place it bluntly. So if we will prevent someone in any respect making that selection, then we have now performed one thing implausible, other people want to know there may be assist to be had!! We have been extraordinarily fortunate to have Nick Helm concerned within the video. We adore Nick, he’s a actually magnificent human, extraordinarily proficient comic and actor and he jumped on the probability to be within the video and unfold the phrase about psychological well being. Nick has been combating his personal demons, which he is going into in his are living display, and cherished the speculation of taking part in a personality thankfully coping with a sequence of small failures at the outdoor, striking on a courageous face, appearing you simply don’t know what’s occurring with other people at the inside of. We imagine Nick has increased the tune’s that means to an entire new degree thru his implausible portrayal within the video, and we wish to thank him dearly for being part of it.
Simply take into account you aren’t by myself, you’ll discuss to other people, individuals are ready that can assist you, don’t endure in silence, search assist. Please.”

It may not be the primary individual you ask, however in the end any person will pay attention you and get started you on a trail. It truthfully does recover.
Anyway. Form of out of left box Baz despatched me their tune Night time Skies and requested me to be within the video. As I’m a comic I had to start with idea we’d do one thing slightly extra upbeat, however once I heard it I knew this was once the only. As a result of I speak about psychological well being onstage it felt like a excellent have compatibility. Then Baz stated he sought after to do one of those tribute to Tony Hancock so we attempted to do one thing that encapsulated that form of persona for the video and I instructed the mother or father angel factor. It took place organically. It felt like if we took all the ones parts shall we do one thing sure with it. I will be able to’t rigidity this sufficient, should you’re suffering with anything else, apprehensive, crushed, having intrusive ideas, or darkish emotions, ask for assist. Communicate to any person, someone, and inform them the way you’re feeling and you are going to in the end get assist.
