Get real
Elbow air video for ‘Real Life (Angel)’
Mini-documentary video is lifted from ‘The Take Off and Landing of Everything’.
Taken from ‘The Take Off and Landing of Everything’, Elbow are taking a dip with a swim-centric new video for ‘Real Life (Angel)’.
The track itself is distant from the themes in this video. It presents a subtitled tale where a swimmer discusses the depths (geddit) of her hobby, from gliding across the water to staying at the top of the surface. Think of it half like a documentary, half like a sweet extension from Elbow’s latest LP.
