The single itself surges into view with a drumbeat and a ripple of synths framing Paul Smith's vocal before culminating in a sweep of uplifting emotion: a band at the top of their game. The film short accompanying the music uses the song as a soundtrack. The band have worked with video artist Matt Stokes to produce a short film featuring a real life 'urban hermit' living in the outer reaches of East London. The man lives in his detached reality, surrounded by domestic clutter, his actions depicting a blissful life less ordinary - a final, poignant game of chess outlines his isolated existence.
