I wanted to capture that feeling you get when you have your headphones on and you're able to fully zone out from the rest of the world, letting your mind wander. That's something very comforting, but ironically, filming this video really took me out of my comfort zone. We filmed it in 48 hours in 30+ locations around London. I had to do the full 5 min take in each spot in order to make all the moments sync (sometimes twice). Rob absolutely nailed the film/edit. I definitely felt like a muppet doing many of the takes, but then you learn not to worry, and that no one else is actually really minding you either. Do you. Get into it. Who cares. Spot me out in London bopping care free ~ Mehrt

Craggy coastlines in my head
Pull me out of the cityscape
This passage of time
Skips over my mind
Bet you’ve known this placid state
Nearby long grass and calm lakes
Have you kept out the plastic waste,
Has transience found a new pace?
It’s been about, oh, a minute now
Thanks for your precious time
And as life swells by
Please remain calm
Do a little dance
Add some ooh la la
Keep it coming now
Just don’t let us touch the ground
La la la
La la la
La la la
Head tilted back to the sky
Underneath a canopy of fractured sunlight
When I’m out there I’m thinking of how I’ll be desk bound
Seeking to capture this sound
Void of here and now
Savings depleted, don’t love this feeling
Shake the money off my mind for a sec
Yeah I’ll look back one day
And we’ll say “those were the best days with my mates around”
For now we’re the new kids in town
La la la
La la la
La la la
Cool cool London
Yeah you’ve been right
For this time in my life
And you’ve shown me how to go
And shake up the grooves
Do a little dance
Add some ooh la la
Keep it coming now
Just don’t let us touch the ground
La la la
La la la
La la la
La la la
You’ll be right
We’ll be right
You’ll be right
We’ll be right
La la la
We’ll be right
La la la
You’ll be right
Do a little dance
Add some ooh la la
Keep it coming now
Just don’t let us touch the ground
