Paul McCartney has released a new video for Hope For The Future, his recent contribution to the Destiny video game.
The song, produced by Giles Martin, is out now, with the new video arriving courtesy of director Daniel Askill and featuring a holographic representation of McCartney. The former Beatle said:
“When you’re writing something like Hope For The Future, which is custom made, it is like doing a portrait for someone. You have to use your imagination and work out what they need, what they're going to want and then what you want to give them. Then you’ve got to combine those three things into something that you still think maintains integrity.
“So in the game you're a guardian of the last city on Earth so that suggested to me the ‘hope for the future’ idea and I went from there. Then I thought it is not just a game song, this will get played outside the game so it has got to be standalone too, you can’t have references to aliens or people will think ‘what’s he talking about?’ So it had to have its own stand alone meaning and integrity.”
