Re: Once - video filmed in Japan
The more I think about it, the more I'm convinced that it is Once MV. It matches the boys positions and the tune fits the
Shrine athmosphere better than Alway There.
Answer in 12 or 13 h of time

Re: Video filmed in Japan (temporary title)
What we've heard of "Always There" is S L O W. I can't imagine anyone dancing to it unless it's in slow motion. Plus, if it was indeed recorded 2 years ago like somebody heard, it would look rather strange since Morgan doesn't look like a little kid anymore.fan_de_LoK wrote: ↑<span title="Mon Oct 28, 2024 9:11 pm">1 month ago</span> The more I think about it, the more I'm convinced that it is Once MV.

The dancers and the ikibana seem more fitting for the lyrics of "Once", imho.

So relieved. Was worried they may have left a la Laurence Davy last year.

Per Patrick's info, we can change the title of this thread to Once.

Re: Video filmed in Japan (temporary title)
I am really happy with that news so we know the final three music videos for the album.
Once and the green screen was for Happy Xmas(War is over) and Music was Born.

Is the Music was Born the video filmed at the Crystal Palace underground?

Re: Once (Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence)
Definitely a change for them in terms of having the dancers and so forth as part of the shrine background. I'm not sure if the setting did anything or added anything to the song but I'm sure that the intended Japanese audience will probably enjoy it.
It's always good to have more music videos to help promote them online and to bring them to new audiences.

Re: Once (Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence)
If there is someone in this forum who knows more about Shintoism, perhaps they can explain what's going on in this video. I'll admit that I'm a little uncomfortable with the part at the end where it seems to show some of the singers 'praying'. I would think that if you are doing that it would imply that you actually believe in the religion, but this could be different for all I know. I just wonder how some Libera fans will react to it, especially the ones who tend to think of Libera in terms of its Christian roots. Nevertheless, I quite like the arrangement. I like how the repetition later in the song with subtly changing harmonies creates a rather hypnotic effect.
