COBI MIKE, “Walking Through The Fire” (video)
It was about exactly a month ago that I brought to your attention “Walking Through The Fire” from ex-Gentlemen Hall vocalist Cobi Mike (full name – not surprisingly – Jacob Michael). It’s resurfaced again in these pages because of its recent compelling video whose intent is to get inside your head and make you find yourself when you need yourself the most. I’ll get this out of the way right from the beginning: the singer is naked in a desert throughout the video. For those of you who haven’t stopped breathing, or perhaps need to recompose yourselves before proceeding, you’ll find that the video is a very well-directed, smart story. Here, the protagonist almost gets drowned by an ex-love, almost gets beaten-to-death by a former rival, and then has to think his way through difficult times as if he’s winning an important game. Then what’s in the box… is to be continued (and I’m not giving away the ending by saying that). “Walking Through The Fire” has grown on me greatly over the last month, so do yourself a favour and pick it up on iTunes.
