Christina Perri released her video for “Human”, her first single of her highly anticipated sophomore effort Head Or Hearts.
The less-is-more video shows Perri alone in a large white setting, sitting on a white platform, dressed in a simple black swimsuit. What starts to seem like an ordinary performance video turns to something else as the light on Perri disappears, we only see her silhouette, which show pieces of her body as mechanical parts, begging the question whether she is human or not.
The song itself mixes the soft sounds of a lone piano with sweeping string ensembles, and at times a full band backing her. “Human” tells the story of vulnerably, explaining that we're all only human much like Shakespeare’s Shylock with lyrics such as "And I bleed when I fall down/ I’m only human/ And I crash and I break down/ Your words in my head, knives in my heart."
The multi-platinum hit maker also just released her second single ”I Believe” along with the album artwork for the new album.
Perri’s Head Or Heart is due to be released on March 11, and will also tour in support of the album throughout North America starting April 4 in Denver, CO and ending May 26 in Vancouver, Canada.
