David Jane Releases New Song “Five and Dime”
Toronto-based singer-songwriter David Jane released a new song “Five and Dime” along with a music video on January 22, 2025.
The song delves into the uncanny experience of returning home to a place that no longer feels familiar.
On the track, David Jane worked with producer Sam Arion, marking their third collaboration.
The accompanying music video was directed by Chara Ho and David Matheson.
David Jane said of the song, “'Five and Dime' exists in the breaking point between inspiration and dissociation. Dreaming of a “Five and Dime” symbolizes an idealized haven from a romanticized past-like the alluring veneer of a classic Hollywood movie-where life appeared simpler and more connected. For an acoustic-driven song, there are so many unique parts-the epic bridge with Arctic Monkeys- esque lead guitar, a nostalgic breakdown with cinematic strings-and yet, after hours of experimentation, what tied everything together was simply adding another rhythmic acoustic. It was a beautiful reminder that sometimes less is more.- David Jane shared on social media, “One of the most fun and frenetic productions I've been a part of, thrilled with how everything turned out and immensely grateful to all the collaborators listed below and anyone else who played a part in bringing the vision of this song to life. Directed by Chara Ho and David Matheson. Produced by Sam Arion. Director of Photography by Hayden Salter. Colour by Marco Leung. Special thanks to Korben Lirette and jax.”
