I felt this huge sense of urgency, and wanted to nurture him in anyway I possible could: sexually, emotionally, and then finally realized that I could help him through music. It was all very instinctual. The song attempts to reach him in his dark place, and then lure him away from there. The chorus in this song is very sweet and gentle. It is meant to be comforting and remind him of romance and the softness of a woman&#8217;s touch. If that isn&#8217;t enough to live for, then I don&#8217;t know what is.<\/em><br class=\"\" \/><br class=\"\" \/><em>David Waldman, a Toronto-based music photographer of over ten years, is who we turned to for the music video. His direction helped us illuminate the DIY punk scene that Dilly Dally has spawned from here in our city. It is a very honest and practical video that shows the band jamming in a dusty basement, and then going on our usual run to the convenient store. The video is also laced with dark, symbolic and ghostly imagery. It is meant to be an empowering piece for women, and inspiring for those who struggle with depression.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Dilly Dally&#8217;s first\u00a0LP, &#8216;Sore,&#8217; out now\u00a0on\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><span class=\"\"><span class=\"\"><a class=\"\" href=\"http:\/\/hivemindpr.us10.list-manage1.com\/track\/click?u=04780c244c226dd8f0096243b&amp;id=6ace7e204c&amp;e=998dd35436\" target=\"_blank\"><span class=\"\">Buzz Records<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/span><span class=\"\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"\">\u00a0in Canada and\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><span class=\"\">on\u00a0<\/span><a class=\"\" href=\"http:\/\/hivemindpr.us10.list-manage.com\/track\/click?u=04780c244c226dd8f0096243b&amp;id=a894306d91&amp;e=998dd35436\" target=\"_blank\"><span class=\"\">Partisan<\/span><\/a><span class=\"\"><span class=\"\">\u00a0in the US<\/span><\/span><span class=\"\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"\">.
