Luke Hemmings Drops Live Performance Video for “Motion”
Australian pop-rock band 5 Seconds of Summer's Luke Hemmings dropped a live performance video for “Motion”.
The song was released last month from his upcoming debut solo album “When Facing the Things We Turn Away”.
It was written by Luke Hemmings and Sammy Witte.
Luke Hemmings said of he song, “This song is about having a sense of distrust with the way you perceive your own thoughts and the way the world moves around you. It was written about a time when I felt like the voices in my head weren't my own and my sense of reality felt blurred.”
The debut solo album is due out this Friday (August 13). He told Rollacoaster about the album, “The whole album basically revolves around trying to decipher the last 10 years and all the things that are put on the back burner. I'm sure a lot of people can relate to that, not even from a touring standpoint but I feel like everyone had to take stock of their lives and be like, 'am I happy doing this?'. If you're working all the time and constantly moving, you never really get to take stock. I've been in the band since I was 15, and then we toured a lot in the last 10 years, so I hadn't been in the same city for this long since I was 15. It was definitely a forced stillness and I think the only way for me to figure out all of what happened was to write music. That's kind of my love language.”- source : YouTube
