Track and Permission



The track, 'Free' by Modern Winter, was selected for its highly unique sound and interesting message. While I was perfectly willing to accept whatever song the band wanted me to use, I am glad that they chose 'Free' because it has location hunting marginally simpler but it has also allowed me to use a number of interesting camera angles and has let me use a setting that will set it apart from numerous other videos.

Permission for usage of the song received 13th July 2011.

Due to the track's length, I will cut it down slightly to a more digestible 4:36 so as to keep the video going at a better pace.

The lyrics themselves are quite interesting and although the overall message is slightly ambiguous, the video will hopefully add to the ambiguity but also make the message obvious if it is thought about in conjunction with the lyrics.

"Nothing waits on you to break it through,
Sitting on the back corner making amends,
Nothing rights itself or breaks you down,
Wake up baby smell the fresh air where,
You will fend for yourself
You will fend for yourself
Yeah yeah yeah

Time will tell or it will make it stand,
Buying its way to the promised land,
Sitting all day making others frown,
Wake up baby smell the fresh air where,
You will fend for yourself
You will fend for yourself
Yeah yeah yeah

Sit around
All day long
Wait on me
I’ll set you free
Fight your way
To make the day
Free

Open doors and try to make it sound
Nothing’s coming around to the compound
Pictures showing up everywhere
Wake up baby smell the fresh air where,
You will fend for yourself
You will fend for yourself
Yeah yeah yeah

Nothing waits on you to break it through,
Sitting on the back corner are waiting men,
Nothing rights itself or breaks you down,
Wake up baby smell the fresh air where,
You will fend for yourself
You will fend for yourself
Yeah yeah yeah

Sit around
All day long
Wait on me
I’ll set you free
Fight your way
To make the day
Free

Sit around
All day long
Wait on me
I’ll set you free
Fight your way
To make the day
Free"
