What’s This? “Leavin’” Official Music Video Release…Directed by Ryan Howard, Written by Jess Furman and Ryan Howard
Inside Info: I remember standing in the vocal booth at Reed Vertelney’s studio where he, Marc Nelkin and I wrote this song…and thinking as I sang the line, “Like hanging onto a sinking ship all alone,” that I wanted nothing more in the moment then to re-enact the scene from Titanic towards the end, only have Kate push Leo off the raft from the start or have her swim away. It was a burning desire. The song wasn’t even finished yet and I needed there to be a video for it. All of these classic representations of love…of the way that things are supposed to be…the way that you want them to be, but aren’t with the person you are with. The scenes in the bedroom shows the reality…and each fantasy gets dispelled as it gets closer to the moment where its time to walk out the door. So many friends pulled together to help make this video possible…just for the sake of being creative…and I am grateful to them all…
