On video release day, Richard shared some behind the scenes information on the video:[4]
Silent so long, Emigrate is back!
Many thanks to my dear friends Ben, Ian, Joey and Margaux for being part of this video. Actually, it was the first time I performed with Emigrate in front of an audience and it was so much fun - until my friend Joey gave me 2 coffee pills to get through my jetlag.
Not funny!
Hope you enjoy the video as much as I do.
Love Richard
