Craig Lucas continues to wow fans with his exceptionally artistic approach to pop music. His latest single ‘Anti-sociable’ became a massive hit countrywide and now, he’s slowing things down with a beautiful new ballad titled ‘Happy’. After a strong response from fans, Craig has now premiered the official music video for the track.
The song is about the end of a relationship and wanting the best for the person you were with, even if that means not being together anymore. Naturally, Craig wanted to encompass this in the track’s music video as he takes you through the emotions of a once happy relationship.
The song, written by Craig, Omri Dahan and Greg Abrahams, is quite personal for the singer. “I wrote this song as I was struggling to come to terms with the end of my very first relationship,” he says.
“Things were bad for a while, but we still loved each other a lot. It was really difficult letting go, but we loved each other enough to know that we couldn’t go on hurting each other and that we both deserved better.”
With its incredible vocals, superb instrumentation and universal message, the song is powerful and should have wide appeal – it is especially relatable to anyone who has had their heart broken or who has gone through a breakup. However, the singer-songwriter admits that writing the song was daunting. “I felt very exposed, but I decided that I needed to be as honest as I could. The writing process proved to be very cathartic and helped me deal with the breakup better.”
