Foxes singer (Louisa Rose Allen) has recently released the music video (watch below) for her 3rd single 'Holding Onto Heaven' which is taken from her début album Glorious (set for release on May 12th). The video sees Foxes partake in a party with two sides to it; in one she is happy and care-free and in the other (which is presumably reality) she is sombre and sits idly by herself. The track starts off rather melancholy, with a distinct difference between the two 'versions' of the music video that the singer presents on screen. This type of split-personality is presented on screen in a rather unique way, with one side being the right-side up and the other being upside down, which is rather suitable given the tone of the video.
Overall, it's a soulful pop song, with a rather sombre sound, especially towards the beginning of the track, but this gives it an edge, and benefits the overall sound of the track. The addition of the music box in the video makes it seem slightly eerie and sets the underlying mood of the video and track.
