„I’m not your savior, but I’m by your side“ are music’s gentle words to us. The music, personified by the fantastic singer Tom Smith.
Music is the most direct connection between two - or between two million - people. It loves everyone equally and has this inspiring, this divine power. Today marks the end of the „Nobody Is Not Loved“ journey. Now, with the fifth single and its corresponding video, we come full circle.
It was my hearts desire to tell which incredible power music, the heroine of this story, has (in TUK TUK feat. ÄTNA: https://bit.ly/TukTukVideo) ; to tell that people need their spaces in which they can experience music together and that they will start a rebellion if these sacred spaces are taken from them (in HOME: https://youtu.be/5Fc9A6mLHJU - and in KREATUR DER NACHT feat. Isolation Berlin: https://bit.ly/KreaturVideo) ; that what water is for the body, music is for the soul, an eternal stream (in OCEAN feat. Jamie Foxx: http://bit.ly/OceanVideoPremiere) ; and that true dystopian isolation only begins, when there is no more music. That is the story told in this video.
In a world that is growing more and more complex and unhinged, there is one thing that we can still hold on to, a thing that will continue to give us hope; because as long as there is music, we do not have to be afraid. As long as there is music, you are never alone, and you are never not loved.
I talk about all this in a bit more detail in the third part of my Interview (https://bit.ly/InterviewPt3) , which I recorded in January 2021.

LYRICS:
If I was your saviour
I would open your eyes
But I'm on the pavement
At a quarter to nine
So open your open your open your eyes
Put one foot in front of the other tonight
We'll be on the pavement knocked out by the sky
Night travel home
An unwelcome goodbye
Show me where our stage went
Cos I'm fit to fly
So open your open your open your eyes
Put one foot in front of the other tonight
No I'm not a saviour, but I'm at your side
If I was your saviour
I would open your eyes
But I'm on the pavement
At a quarter to nine
So open your open your open your eyes
Put one foot in front of the other tonight
We'll be on the pavement knocked out by the sky
Night travel home
