Usually this is where there'd be a short blurb for the new video from Folke Film director Filip Nilsson but Nilsson's explanation is far more interesting. So...
"I first heard Amason play this song live in the summer of 2015. It completely swept my feet and reminded me about my longtime friend Erick, the man in the video, who once told me that he can’t even remember the sensation of love.
As I’m already blessed to live with a person who shows me love, I, shortly after the concert, called Erick to ask how he was, and if he wanted to tell me more about his solitude? During this call, that went on all night, I came across a study that said that the Yeti (in some civilizations called Bigfoot) is the most loving creature around.
Erick could instantly see why. Just like him, he thought, the Yeti was misunderstood in all its attempts of intimacy. So, we decided there and then to let everything else be and find the Yeti. We travelled for six months and the search took us to Brazil, Sweden and Switzerland. The video shows pieces of the quest, and what other music to complement it, then the tune that started it all?"
