“There’s so much hair in this video. So much hair!”
Snow Patrol frontman Gary Lightbody there, catching sight of himself as the wild, hair-laden video for ‘You’re All I Have’ unfolds.
That’s just one of many candid and self-deprecating insights on display as the band gather round the TV to take in their own music videos from the past 20 years for a ‘Snogglebox’ special.
It’s a good a time as any to look back on things, what with new album Wilderness set to arrive at the end of May.
It’s an all-action yet pleasantly chilled out affair as the guys talk vampires, how they convinced famous actors to work with them and the extreme conditions used to capture the ‘Chasing Cars’ video.
There’s also room for humble beginnings as Lightbody recalls the time he tried to outdo Kurt Cobain in front of about 25 people, only to wind up feeling like a “fucking moron” in the process.
Check out the video in full below.
