Geoff West: Video set around my village of Little Snoring and set to the song by Nickie Hart. It starts in a depressive mood but gradually becomes brighter as the song progresses.
Nickie Hart: The song Choose Life was inspired by the founder of the charity Papyrus, after hearing him tell his tragic story on BBC radio some months ago. There are indeed many tragic stories out there, we hear them everyday and for me the catalyst for creating the song was the knowledge gleaned from the interview not only of the existence of internet suicide chat rooms but more importantly that they claim to have a policy of not interfering if someone has decided to take their own life, even when they would have the means at their disposal to prevent the suicide. Such non-action surely cannot be condoned. After all, many suicides are preventable, depths of despair cannot be continuous, for the transient nature of life demands that everything changes. This is what the song hopes to portray. There is always a way to replacing a bleak black cloud covered horizon with one of light, pink fluffy clouds. You just need to find it. And the looking for it can often be the raison d'ĂȘtre to someone's life.
