The School: Digital single and video for "I love everything"
Yeah, we know. We said that “Hoping and Praying” was going to be the last single from THE SCHOOL’s debut album, but the upcoming visit to Spain from one of our favorite British groups, to participate in the Nocturama and Contempopránea festivals, motivated us to recover a few little gems to share with all those fans that are waiting impatiently for those festival concerts.
So, this coming July 18th the new digital single with the main song “I love everything” will be released. The song is one of our favorites from “Loveless Unbeliever”, short, with a simple structure but an incredibly beautiful melody, those marvellous choruses and that bridge that opens the way through the song like rays of sunshine through black clouds after a storm. And for the B-side we have two big surprises. First, the “Hungry heart” cover that Liz’s group made for the Bruce Springsteen tribute called “Play Some Pool, Skip Some School, Act Real Cool”, (released by the label Where It's At Is Where You Are and available online in our store) where they share the credit list with other names like THE WAVE PICTURES, ALLO DARLIN', Darren Hayman, Harvey Willians, BUTCHER BOY and even Doug Yule (THE VELVET UNDERGROUND) collaborating with Jeff Mellin. The gang from Cardiff takes one of “The Boss’” greatest hits to their territory and turns it, even more, into an irresistible hit. Last (but not least), an amazing song that has special significance for us, because the version of “All I Wanna Do” that closes this single is the one they included on the demo they sent to Elefant Records that made us fall immediately at their feet. On that song you could already see so many of the virtues that we enjoy now that they’ve come to fruition, like those precious arrangements, addictive choruses, dreamy melodies and their colorful instrumentation.
The single will be accompanied by its corresponding video, directed by Jonas Whale. It is an example of the delicate and appealing poetry of the day-to-day, with a fantastic final homage to “Le ballon rouge”, 1956 the short-film directed by Albert Lamorisse – everything is a prayer to fantasy and the excitement of our youth.
This is a new, necessary release for fans; it invites newcomers into their sound, and for those of you who are going to the festivals, you won’t hesitate when it’s time to enjoy their incredible live show.
