Halflives release new music video for ‘jealous.’

HALFLIVES have released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track jealous., is the brand new single from the French melodic rock band and marks their first new music since EP Inferno, which was released in June last year.

Speaking about the new song and its accompanying music video, vocalist Linda Battilani says, jealous. is the perfect example that songwriting doesn’t have to have any boundaries. While I was writing it I was feeling that something out of my ordinary was about to happen and I didn’t force this one in any comfortable space. On the contrary I followed the flow and let it happen and here it is. Lyric wise it was very fun to write, once I unlocked the first idea for the chorus, which was a simple ‘okay, fine’, all the rest of the ideas started pouring and I wrapped them up in one afternoon (I love when this happens!). I’m very proud of how it turned out and it’s one step forward in my ‘adulthood’ as a songwriter.

When I have to describe how this song sounds like or what it makes me feel I say ‘it’s the perfect soundtrack for a villain!’. The song clearly talks about jealousy, and it takes a hypothetical situation to an extremely drastic and dark point. I loved crafting a crazy character, doing drastic deeds to get rid of a rival in love. It was very fun to picture in my head and it was even more fun to portray all this in a music video!”
