How did you come up with concept for the "White Coats" video? Who made that great balloon?
"I worked with Flora Hanitijo, the same girl I did the 'Home' video with. She's very wise and very talented. She has a lovely way of making the ordinary beautiful. With 'White Coats,' I wanted it to be a very natural video like 'Home' but also wanted a message to go with it. We tend to just meet up and capture something pretty natural. The idea sort of came about as we went along. I leave lots of random things across London on my way to the beach, and then I let go of the lanterns, which are suppose to symbolize letting go of your baggage and feeling free. It looked like I did a lot of walking to get there though."

"I love that you've called it a great balloon! They were lanterns we set off just about everywhere in and around London. If you could've seen the behind the scenes of us trying to get these things to fly off and not catch fire to trees and even people on the way up! It was hilarious, but luckily we managed it. You can see how relieved I am when we finally got the take. I'm jumping for joy on the beach!"
