On October 9th, Paging Doctor Moon released a brand new music video for their song, Lost My Body. Earlier this year, I had the opportunity to sit down with lead singer, Kirsten, to chat about Paging Doctor Moon's debut album. (Watch it here.) To say that I was ecstatic to find out about the music video is an understatement.
The music video was shot and directed by William Walker Films. Let me tell you, William Walker Films did not miss. They grasped the true essence of the song and cinematically brought it to life.
In the music video, you watch Kirsten followed by the "ghost" of the person she's trying to release. No matter where she went, the ghost followed her. It wasn't until the end of the music video, Kirsten was finally able to escape from the ghost of her past.
This hauntingly beautiful music video excels at capturing the inner turmoil that comes with holding onto something that no longer serves you. It captures the raw emotions and the cycles that we go through to break free.
"Throw your words
With the precision of a knife
Spill my blood
But the delivery was kind
Lose myself
Oh, just the way you like
Here I am, here I stand
Taking back my life."
As she exits out the front door, you can see the ghost of her past staring at her. The ghost is unable to reach her anymore as she's taken her power back. She has cut cords and removed herself from the binding that held her captive. As she proceeds to walk away, not once does she look back. She walks away with her head held high and with an inner knowing that she did the right thing.
This music video is powerful and captivating. Paging Doctor Moon truly knows how to tug on the heartstrings while reminding listeners that it's possible to start over and turn a new page. It's never too late to "take back your life."
