The music video for Live Like We’re Dying just premiered today on AOL Pop Eater. Set in the desert with a giant digital clock countdown, it features Kris rocking the mic stand, playing the guitar as well as the piano. Very cool video, check it out here!
Kris also chatted with Pop Eater about the video. Here’s the excerpt of the interview:
Tell me about the video for ‘Live Like We’re Dying.’
It was cool because we actually shot it in the desert in L.A. in the middle of nowhere in this junkyard and we had this set, it was this huge digital clock which was really cool and it was kind of raggedy looking and we shot it from 8PM to 8AM in the morning. That was crazy, with no breaks at all. The video is really cool … It looks great. The idea behind it is that I plug in the clock and I’m pulling the big cord through the junkyard and through all these other things and then I plug in the clock and it starts counting down to zero and there’s performance stuff in there. I’m playing the guitar and playing the piano and singing, too. In the end when it hits zero, it’s kind of like the song, it’s like we only have so much time so we gotta do what we want to do.How much input did you have with the whole production?
We had people submit stuff first and it was a little frustrating because I felt like people weren’t getting it … and then we were like “what if it was something like this?” and then another person came back with a great idea that with this idea it kind of intertwined with ours as well.
Don’t forget to vote for this awesome video on the VH1 Top 20 Countdown!
