Watch the Video
I first heard this song as a demo recorded in Haley’s kitchen. A few years later she and Tennis had worked some magic on it and it absolutely exploded out of the speakers. It’s like twinkling magic. I’ve heard people compare it to The Carpenters or The Roches but it feels very singularly Haley’s song. This was the largest production I’ve ever directed. With the extras there were maybe 45 people on set. I wanted to challenge myself to see if I could manage a set that size and pull off a big elaborate oner with all these disparate characters.
I think I really do love the oner and its innate dreaminess but I also love how it pulls a production together like an organic Rube Goldberg machine. After we finally got the shot I think everyone felt equally excited by the video’s success. Filming this felt like we were all folk artists. It’s how I want all my sets to feel.
