Being young and in love is a confusing time for anyone, and for anyone who's experienced the phenomenon, they'll likely never forget it. With that emotional baggage and Aquilo's already incredibly emotional "I Gave It All" in mind, then, let the video that's accompanying the duo's track today be more than just a promotional piece for you; sit back and immerse yourself into the immensely beautiful atmosphere that's created here—just try not to cry. If you want the act's insight into the video, read what they had to say about it below: "The song “I Gave It All” is based around the idea of a delicate relationship that was slowly coming to an end and eventually finding a solace in the fact it had ended. It’s about the coming to terms and accepting that some things just don’t work in life, despite being determined it will. Eoin’s (director) interpretation of the song tells a coming-of-age story about the loss of innocence. How things could have been different if the lead protagonist had pursued a relationship with her best friend instead of his older, cooler brother, and her coming to terms with this." Aquilo's next EP, Human, drops December 8th. Pre-order it HERE. [via P&P]
