Long and Winding Road Video News
The amazing video for 'Long and Winding Road' will get its
first play on The Box,Smash Hits TV and Magic TV today selection number 777.

For people who haven't got cable or satellite you'll be
able to watch the video in full on CD:UK between 11.30am and 12.30pm this
Saturday.
The video was directed by Tim Royes for Black Dog films
whose directors include international filmmaker Ridley Scott. Baille Walsh, who
directed Will's 'Light My Fire' video, was the executive producer.
The video uniquely features a live vocal performance from
Will and Gareth and is shot in one take. It's a truly stunning video.
Below are some extracts from the video treatment written
by Tim Royes which should whet your appetite:
"A timeless performance, without gimmick or artifice,
a showcase to demonstrate Will and Gareth's extraordinary vocal abilities.
Skilfully crafted simplicity is the key to this one-take performance video.
The strength and classic nature of this video reminds us
of Simon and Garfunkel as they performed their free concert in New York's
Central Park.
The look of the video is reminiscent of "Blue
Note" Jazz record covers."
The video will be on this site on Saturday afternoon and
we will try to bring you some stills as soon as we can.
