Australian musician Ben Lee has released the new video for his song “The Body of Love.”
The song is the seventh track on his album Love is the Great Rebellion, which released in May. Other featured tracks on the album include “Big Love” and “Happiness.”
Love is the Great Rebellion featured collaboration with Brad Wood, who produced Lee’s 2005 Awake is the New Sleep.
Keeping up with the theme of collaborations, the “The Body of Love” featured a husband-wife effort. Lee’s wife, Ione Skye, directed the video, and The Sound and the Furry helped with the creative process.
Lee explained the video to the press with the following words:
‘The Body of Love’ is a song about the gentle ache of opening our heart to something bigger. To another human being, to vulnerability, to God, or even to another puppet. I was excited to collaborate on this video with my wife, Ione Skye, who directed, and the LA-based improv puppet troupe “The Sound and the Furry” who starred in and helped conceive the story. Thank you to Ione, Emily, Collin as well as to the real stars of the video – Penelope and Argyle – who help remind us that we all must eventually remember that we are one with the body of love.
