Very proud to see the lads grow exponentially this past year. Very grateful for euro; every footstep you hear, every whoosh of the flag, every car rev, literally every sound was added by that man. Such a talented guy I can’t fathom how bad the video would be without him. Thank you to everyone that helped out while shooting, so much effort was put into this and all the people that were there made it happen :,) the full video is linked in my bio if you want to watch, I’d suggest paying attention the audio because again euro killed that shit

Okay. First off, thank you to my brother, @imdaniellin for allowing me to be a part of such an amazing song. I texted Daniel about this track back in December 2022, as a fan (it was a demo in one of his TikTok’s). Fast forward close to a year and I’m co-directing the video for it. It’s crazy to see progression laid out right in front of you, and this specifically is such a major chapter towards my progression. Daniel, I love you and I appreciate you for having me in your life.
To everyone else that helped on this project (@the.plee , @loewky , @zeekhan__ , @niallproctor ): Sorry for making you run so much. Specifically Harry and Peter. Hopefully it doesn’t change the way you feel about me or Daniel, but if it does, I 100% understand. Thank you guys for being so fucking awesome, and up for anything and everything. You guys really made me feel welcome and appreciated, I love you all.
There’s a million other things I’d like to say, but this labor of love deserves to be appreciated, without my sappy bullshit, so please enjoy my first music video ever.
