The music video for Rae Spoon’s song “Written Across The Sky” from their new album Armour is an ode to 1970s’ horror film lighting and all things haunted. Spoon co-directed the video with Maya Bankovic, an award winning cinematographer whose work has screened at TIFF, Sundance, VIFF and many other festivals. The two previously worked together on the NFB documentary-musical My Prairie Home, a five-year project. Shot in Spoon’s 1907 Victoria home, the new video shows the ease of their working relationship through the intimacy of the close-up shots and moving portraits.

Lyrics:

There will be no miracles
when our bodies rise up.
It’s written across the sky
we will find a way up.

We’re hungry.
We’re hungry.
We’re hungry.
We’re hungry.

There’s nothing spiritual
about holding our empty cups.
Our screams will split lightening
And bring on the flood.

We’re hungry.
We’re hungry.
We’re hungry.
We’re hungry.

There is no glory
in a forest of doubt.
We’re waiting for a call
and then we will claw our way out.

We’re hungry.
We’re hungry.
We’re hungry.
We’re hungry.

Can’t Go Right

Leave my body broken in half.
There is nothing left to mend.
Somethings happen you can’t take back.
Some things can’t go right again.

Can’t go right. Can’t go right again.
Can’t go right. Can’t go right again.

Your prayers are filling the sky and falling sideways down
And covering up my roof and blowing all around.
There is no end in sight as you keep on throwing them high
and they arc through the night and fall back to the ground.

Can’t go right. Can’t go right again.
Can’t go right. Can’t go right again.

We are fighting a battle that no one can win.
And killing off the ground that we have in common.
I have told you over and over that I know who I am.
If you don’t believe me we are way past the last stand.

Can’t go right. Can’t go right again.
Can’t go right. Can’t go right again.
