This is my first video in a long time (since the 'even if it hurts' video in 2019!) and it's my first as a newly fully independent artist. It was a true passion project - in the best and most pure sense of that term - between myself and an amazing team.
I worked with my close friend and long time collaborator Jonatán López, and collaborated with choreographer Teresa 'Toogie' Barcelo.
The way this video came together was crazy, because we prepped it for months and shot it, but there was a huge mishap on behalf of someone which resulted in none of the footage being usable. I was on tour for two months after that and the entire project died. I, along with the rest of the team, was completely heartbroken.
Eventually though, we managed to re-shoot the whole video, two months after the original shoot !! The whole crew donated their time and we brought the video to a whole new level. I want to thank everyone who helped bring this together and revive the video that almost never was <3
hope you love it.
"Construye sobre los fracasos. Los usas como una piedra angular. Cierra la puerta al pasado. No intentes olvidar los errores, pero no te quedes fijado en ellos. No les permitas tener nada de tu energía, o de tu tiempo, o de tu espacio".

Since I really loved this song in Our Flag Means Death season 2, but couldn't find the studio version of the song with both the English and French parts together on YouTube, I decided to do it myself. No idea if YouTube will get testy and remove it later on, but for now here it is, ha.
Shinya went to tour his costume designer's atelier. The second half of thevideo is especially funny because they criticise how dark Dir en grey's artist photos are. As a matter of fact, who would have known that this was the photo in which Shinya was wearing the jacket shown in that video? Even reconstructed, you can't make it out!
