THE BALLAD OF JOHN
When it came time to bring out the second single, we realized that we needed to find the appropriate follow-up to “A Son of Sam”. It was winter and the idea of one of the slower and darker songs – our first consideration – suddenly seemed less like a good idea.
“The Ballad of John” was on our short list and one day, the idea of filming a road trip to London became self-evident. We wanted lay clues for this subtle treasure hunt; seeking the vestiges of a time gone by when Rock ‘n Roll really did change the world forever.
It was cold and wet and windy in London the days we were there but we loved every moment.
