Lizzy Farrall releases new music video for ‘Boys Don’t Cry’

Lizzy Farrall has released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track Boys Don’t Cry, is a cover from THE CURE and arrives on the back of her latest EP, Barbados, which was released earlier this year.

Speaking about why she chose to cover THE CURE, Lizzy says, “when Pure Noise approached me with the idea of releasing a cover, I instantly knew I wanted to cover something by THE CURE. THE CURE are a big inspiration to me and Boys Don’t Cry is one of their most well-known songs, so it was an easy decision for me. I don’t doubt people will wonder why I chose this song when the chorus’ lyrics are Boys Don’t Cry. I was tempted to sing ‘girls’ instead of ‘boys’ but I felt that would have taken away from the importance of them pointing to the toxic masculinity and stigma that men shouldn’t show their feelings. Saying that, even though I kept the lyrics identical to the original I wanted to make the cover my own; I wanted to reimagine the song as though it was written as a modern pop song. I’m super happy with how the cover turned out and hope I’ve done justice to the original.”
