Iron Maiden vocalist Bruce Dickinson has issued a new video for the reimagined version of his past solo track “Change Of Heart“. This version of that song was released as part of last year’s reworked “Balls To Picasso” album, “More Balls To Picasso“. The below video was filmed in Sao Paulo, Brazil last September alongside directors Leo Liberti and Antoine de Montremy.
Dickinson himself said of the clip:
“When we shot a video for ‘Tears Of The Dragon’ in Brazil last year, I thought it would be a wonderful opportunity to also shine a light on the song ‘Change Of Heart’. This song has always been very special to me with the wonderful new arrangement of it on the ‘More Balls To Picasso’ album, its message and power feels even more enhanced.
We used the William Blake painting because he devoted much of his work to the eternal tension between innocence and experience, freedom and spiritual enslavement, consciousness and alienation, and I’m very aware that my own work often deals with the same subjects. So having the young boy in the video, carrying that particular painting is a very deliberate choice. The child embodies that primal awareness, capable of seeing what adults have learned to ignore.”
