Videoinformation
Das XOV Video zur Single “Lucifer” vom Album “Wild”.
Bekannt ist er vor allem durch seinen Beitrag zum Soundtrack von “Die Tribute von Panem – Mockingjay Part1”, dem Song “Animal”. Mit “Lucifer” liefert der mysteriöse XOV nicht nur einen souligen Ohrwurm, sondern zudem auch ein Video mit gewaltigen Bildern ab. Während er bisher im Video zu “Boys Don’t Cry” und auf all seinen Pressefotos konstant auf schwarz-weiße Visuals setzte, ist dieser Clip zum ersten Mal durch Farbe belebt.
Zwischen Schnee, Bergen und Meer wandert XOV umher
Unterstrichen wird der Pathos des Songs vor allem von den im Video gezeigten Naturschauspielen: Schlagende Wellen peitschen gegen hohe Klippen, die mit Schnee bedeckt sind. XOV durchstreift diese Schneelandschaft, während die Sonne prall auf ihn scheint. Außerdem wandert er durch eine Grotte, die seine dunkle Seite sehr gut widerspiegelt. Währenddessen singt er von Lucifer, was gleichbedeutend mit dem Namen des Teufels ist.
Der Schwede Oskar Wrangö steckt hinter dem naturbeladenen Video
Für die Visualisierung von Wasser und Land ist Regisseur Oskar Wrangö sowie seine Produktionsfirma Camp David Film bekannt. Auch in seinen Werbeclips für McDonalds oder Mitsubishi spielt die Natur eine tragende Rolle. Kürzlich hat er auch für den britischen Künstler Pim Stones ein Musikvideo gedreht, das voller Naturaufnahmen steckt. Langsame Shots sind ebenfalls eines seiner liebsten Stilmittel.
Lyrics von XOV “Lucifer”
I want him to meet his maker
I used to be a lover, now I’m a hater
my passion to succeed is watching him bleed
oh lord, what have become of me?
once upon a time, I was a fool
to cool for school, gangster cruel
blood in, blood out, pull the trigger no doubt
lucky motherfucker, you don’t know what I’d do to you
I used to kick it with Lucifer
and he still lingers in the dark
oh, oh Lucifer
you better watch out
the evil within has never been greater
my soul has been seized and he’s the dictator
I’ve been dragged through the mud, I can still taste the blood
oh lord, what have become of me?
once upon a time, I was a fool
to cool for school, gangster cruel
blood in, blood out, pull the trigger no doubt
lucky motherfucker, you don’t know what I’d do to you
I used to kick it with Lucifer
and he still lingers in the dark
oh, oh Lucifer
you better watch out
sometimes I feel like seeking him down
just for the hell of it
look for his face around town
smack, smack, just a bit
lucky motherfucker got away with my cash
I built you up and Imma tear you down
just like that
once upon a time, I was a fool
to cool for school, gangster cruel
blood in, blood out, pull the trigger no doubt
lucky motherfucker, you don’t know what I’d do to you
I used to kick it with Lucifer
and he still lingers in the dark
oh, oh Lucifer
you better watch out
the devil’s been an angel
even the devil’s been an angel
Lucifer
the devil’s been an angel
the devil’s been an angel
even the devil’s been an angel
I used to be a lover, now I’m a hater
my passion to succeed is watching him bleed
oh lord, what have become of me?
once upon a time, I was a fool
to cool for school, gangster cruel
blood in, blood out, pull the trigger no doubt
lucky motherfucker, you don’t know what I’d do to you
I used to kick it with Lucifer
and he still lingers in the dark
oh, oh Lucifer
you better watch out
the evil within has never been greater
my soul has been seized and he’s the dictator
I’ve been dragged through the mud, I can still taste the blood
oh lord, what have become of me?
once upon a time, I was a fool
to cool for school, gangster cruel
blood in, blood out, pull the trigger no doubt
lucky motherfucker, you don’t know what I’d do to you
I used to kick it with Lucifer
and he still lingers in the dark
oh, oh Lucifer
you better watch out
sometimes I feel like seeking him down
just for the hell of it
look for his face around town
smack, smack, just a bit
lucky motherfucker got away with my cash
I built you up and Imma tear you down
just like that
once upon a time, I was a fool
to cool for school, gangster cruel
blood in, blood out, pull the trigger no doubt
lucky motherfucker, you don’t know what I’d do to you
I used to kick it with Lucifer
and he still lingers in the dark
oh, oh Lucifer
you better watch out
the devil’s been an angel
even the devil’s been an angel
Lucifer
the devil’s been an angel
the devil’s been an angel
even the devil’s been an angel
