We collaborated with adam&eveDDB for another year to provide the perfect soundtrack to accompany their moving new Christmas campaign film. Inspired by the agency’s script, Oasis' 'Half the World Away' captured both the light and shade, warmth and pathos of the advert. To capture the film’s other worldliness we chose 19 year old Aurora, a Norwegian artist and winner of the European Border Breakers Award for emerging artists, who created a unique cover of a British classic. In its first weekend alone, the film had garnered nearly ten million YouTube views, and the track was at number 4 in the UK iTunes chart.
BriefExplanation
This is the story of a young girl called Lily. Looking at the moon through her family telescope one night, she is amazed at what she finds, a man on the moon.
Lily watches on as our man goes about his chores, all alone up there. She becomes determined to get something to the moon, to send him a message and show him that someone down here is thinking of him.
