It would be a heinous crime for us to not share this visual & aural work of art by Singapore-born singer-songwriter, producer and multi-instrumentalist (and lyrical genius?) Charlie Lim. The stunning music video for I Only Tell The Truth, a transfixing tune which has been on loop for one too many car rides, can only be described as utterly befitting.
“It involved renting a jumbo plane, roaming in the desert, and casual drowning in 5 degree ocean water…” – Charlie Lim
In a vain attempt not to overanalyse, we would loosely liken the non-linear narrative to a couple of striking scenes from Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Which cannot possibly a bad reference point, ever. It’s the kind of video you’re just cool with never understanding. We’re done talking, so hit play and let the glorious track take over.
You can listen to Charlie’s album Time/Space on Spotify, and purchase it on iTunes if you like what you hear.
