The Xcerts release new music video for ‘in your eyes’
THE XCERTS have released a new single!
The Aberdeen-based alternative trio have released their brand new single in your eyes, which follows on from recent single do it to myself. While the previous single reintroduced the band with sharpened urgency, in your eyes instead highlights their expansive, reflective side, building gradually into a powerful emotional crescendo.
Speaking about the track, vocalist/guitarist Murray Macleod says, “in your eyes is without question the most raw and personal song we’ve ever written. Fundamentally, it’s about loss. The loss of what I deemed to be forever love and the cruelty of cancer. The closing lines of the song are ‘this isn’t goodbye, this is I’ll love you forever’ which serves as a full stop but also has an open-ended feel to it. It’s a desperate grieving cry, but while writing the words, I also thought, well, if this is the last thing we ever create then that’s the message I want to ring out in Jordan, Tom and our fan base’ ears. I’m aware it’s overly sincere, but it’s true, and the truth is all we wanted to convey. The song finishes with Jordan’s mum blowing a kiss and saying ‘I love you’ which is extremely emotional, but it was important for her to close out this song as it belongs to her.”
