Launch of "Changeling"
On Thursday 26th of June, "Changeling" went live! The song became available to download from multiple outlets including iTunes, Amazon and Google Play and due to demand can now be streamed on Spotify. The online reaction was immediate and phenomenal with incredible reviews and well wishes from the far flung spaces of the globe. From Brazil, to the USA, across Europe and down to South Africa the feedback was that Empires That Dance had nailed Changeling without copying it. The song alone with its Giorgio Moroder groove was an instant hit with fans however the accompanying video shot in Scotland is taking on a life of its own. The hit rate on the Empires That Dance YouTube channel is a revelation. The video was shot by Martin Poschinger of Sweet Invaders Movies along with his colleague John Provyn. The footage was shot on location in Glasgow and Edinburgh in March featuring some special cameos from Bruce Findlay and Brian McGee, whom Simple Minds fans will recognise as the band's manager and drummer at the time of the original version of the song in the 1980. The Street Parade of followers coming forward to support Changeling is growing by the day."
