When simplicity meets fashion in music videos... (Part 2)

"HURTS" continue to surprise and thrill us with their new song called "Stay" which refers to an unfulfilled and unconfessed love (if you pay attention to the lyrics):

My whole life, waiting for the right time to tell you how I feel
And though I tried to tell you that I need you, here I am without you
I feel so lost but what can I do? Cause I know this love seems real but
I don't know how to feel ...

A really beautiful song that screams "STAY!!" to your beloved one...

We say goodbye in the pouring rain and I break down as you walk away (Stay) (Stay)
Cause all my life I've felt this way but I could never find the words to say (Stay!) (Stay!) ...


Hurts - Stay



* Simplicity and minimalism consist the dominant theme once again in this music video. As you may have noticed, pale tones (such as grey, green and cream) underlie the whole senario and direction, in which an "earth motif" is detected. The reason why this motif exists is that this video contains three basic earth elements: Sea, Wind, Rocks!


* As far as the dancers are concerned, I have to say that in my opinion they must represent group's consciousness when they sing (do the vocals) : "Stay... stay"! They are something like HURTS's muses that's why they appear in almost every video. Through their dance they support the lyrics of the song. In addition to this, the wind that blows their (simple yet chic and pretty) outfits and veils gives a refreshing touch to the scenery ...


* The main theme: LOVE!!!

I hope that "Hurts" will keep on doing such a great music and videos so that we will have the chance to enjoy their beautiful and inspired work...

So change your mind and say you're mine
Don't leave tonight...STAY...
