Earth Day 2021 in the new normal, heat waves and an Oxford guy named Dave Bayley

Parking this just because this version by Dave Bayley is so good. British Oxford band makes beautiful music and a pretty sick website too! Check it out: https://opensource.glassanimals.com/

(Don't stop, baby, you can go on through

(Don't want, baby, think about you) (You know that I'm never gonna lose) Road shimmer Wiggling the vision Heat heat waves I'm swimming in a mirror Road shimmer Wiggling the vision Heat heat waves I'm swimming in a Sometimes, all I think about is you Late nights in the middle of June Heat waves been faking me out Can't make you happier now Sometimes, all I think about is you Late nights in the middle of June Heat waves been faking me out Can't make you happier now Usually I put Something on TV So we never think About you and me But today I see Our reflections Clearly in Hollywood Laying on the screen You just need a better life than this You need something I can never give Fake water all across the road It's gone now the night has come but Sometimes, all I think about is you Late nights in the middle of June Heat waves been faking me out Can't make you happier now You can't fight it You can't breathe You say something so loving but Now I've got to let you go You'll be better off in someone new I don't wanna be alone You know it hurts me too You look so broken when you cry One more and then I'll say goodbye Sometimes, all I think about is you Late nights in the middle of June Heat waves been faking me out Can't make you happier now Sometimes, all I think about is you Late nights in the middle of June Heat waves been faking me out Can't make you happier now I just wonder what you're dreaming of When you sleep and smile so comfortable I just wish that I could give you that That look that's perfectly unsad Sometimes, all I think about is you Late nights in the middle of June Heat waves been faking me out Heat waves been faking me out Sometimes, all I think about is you Late nights in the middle of June Heat waves been faking me out Can't make you happier now Sometimes, all I think about is you Late nights in the middle of June Heat waves been faking me out Can't make you happier now Road shimmer Wiggling the vision Heat heat waves I'm swimming in a mirror Road shimmer Wiggling the vision Heat heat waves I'm swimming in a mirror #GlassAnimals​ #Heat​ Waves #DREAMLAND

An official message from Dave on the mv below:

this video is a love letter to live music and the culture and togetherness surrounding it. It was filmed at the peak of the lockdown in my neighbourhood in East London by the lovely people who live around me, just using their phones. These are people who are usually out at shows, in galleries, going to cinemas etc. These venues are left empty now, and many of them will not survive. The song is about loss and longing, and ultimately realizing you are unable to save something...and this video is about that but for art, being together, and human contact. Huge love and thank you’s to everyone who got involved and helped out. When everyone was leaning out of their windows filming, I felt that same sense of togetherness and spine-tingling energy that happened at live shows. It made the coldness of performing to an empty room with the band stuck on screens feel even more heart-breaking...

​

I hope you'll enjoy discovering Dave Bayley and his music as much as I did. Is there one thing you'll do for our planet this earth day? My personal pledge is to take smaller bites (eat less) and make larger strides (walk more, do more).
