No-One ElseDo you remember the film ‘Being John Malkovich?’ The scene where, deep inside his psyche, there resides a whole host of different Johns. Well that’s the basic idea for Danny Widdicombe’s new clip for ‘No One Else’. “I was in London, sick as a dog, I didn’t know it yet but my old foe leukaemia had relapsed and my mate Marty was keen on making a film clip in one day.” “I said to Marty – OK – no stairs and no hills – I can’t cope” Obviously the entire shoot was set on stairs and up a hill… The entire clip was filmed on Danny’s iPhone in a few hours on a sunny summer afternoon in Greenwich, by the Thames. |
“‘No One Else’ is about obsession – when a tune goes round n round and you can’t get it out of your head. Sometimes that happens to us when we meet someone special – we can’t think of anything or anyone else. Imagine being alone at sea with nothing to distract you and coming down with a case of mental fixation…”
‘No One Else’ is the first single from Danny’s brand new album ‘Find Someone’. Recorded at his home studio in Brisbane, in Berlin and in hospital between bouts of chemotherapy, the album is testament to why Danny was the winner of the 2010 GW McLennan Memorial Fellowship and an ARIA nominated songwriter/performer with his other band The Wilson Pickers.
‘Find Someone’ is out on 21st October through ABC / Universal and it is full of tunes that’ll go round n round inside you head.
