Lover, please has waited a very, very long time to be released.

It’s the second video from the Let It Go album.

Rather than make it a performance video, I decided to make it a lyric video, backed by manipulated public domain footage. It doesn’t need my face. 🙂

It’s slow and sultry, which to me totally fits with the song.

Enjoy.

Love,

An important p.s. – I wanted to make this multi-racial.  (And multi-gender, for that matter)  But there was nothing in the old public domain movies that WAS multi-racial.  And being that we’re in social distancing for the time being, there was no way for me to shoot new, intimate scenes between varied partners.  So it lives as it is.

I always loved “making of” featurettes… and now I get to share one!

I first heard Into Each Life Some Rain Must Fall – a record by Ella Fitzgerald and the Ink Spots – while playing a video game called Fallout 3.  In F3, you are wandering the ruins of post-apocalyptic Washington DC and its’ suburbs.  But while you’re doing that, you can listen to the radio – to a guerilla radio station called Galaxy News Radio, which plays all this GREAT old music – which I’ve always had an affinity for. (You can listen to all the songs from the station here on youtube.)

So when it came time to make a video for it, I wanted to do something that was, at least in part, an homage to the game.  Hence the dilapidated room.

But how to go about that?  Well… this video will show you how I did it. (Well, at least how I made the room.)  Between that and the editing of the actual video, it was a tremendous amount of work.  But I’m incredibly proud of how it turned out.

Enjoy.
