The Fray - 'Break Your Plans' [Music Video]
The Fray really push their imagination in the
music video for ’Break Your Plans’, the official second single from the band’s
latest album ‘Helios’. The Fray have finally given up on ‘Love Don’t Die’, the
lead single that had the potential to be a monster hit but which for whatever
reason only peaked at #60 on the Billboard Hot 100.
In ‘Break Your Heart’, The Fray return to their
The Fray-esque sounding piano ballads. You know, the kind of songs that gave the
Isaac Slade-led band hits such as: ‘How To Save A Life’ or ‘You Found Me’. ‘Break Your Heart’ isn’t as captivating as the two songs mentioned before,
but it makes it clear anyway that The Fray have realized that changing their ‘sound’
to the style of ‘Love Don’t Die’ isn’t good for them. As releasing ‘Break Your
Heart’ as their next single from ‘Helios’ is like saying ’we’ve made a mistake,
but we’re fixing things now’. As stated above, ‘Break Your Heart’ is like a
step back for The Fray.
‘Break Your Heart’ is a moving ballad, as usual very well sung by Isaac, and the music video, the band just premiered on VEVO, is just as moving. Its plot, however, is ‘something different’. And by the different, we mean CRAZY. A fisherman makes his way to the vast ocean on his boat for a day of laidback fishing. He gets his prize, but it’s not a big fish…it’s a SIREN. The two fall in love, go for a swim, kiss but suddenly, the good-looking fisherman starts feeling bad, and noticing scars in his body after checking him out in a mirror. The SIREN sees how her man falls into the water and turns into a SHARK.
Oh, my, god.
