Jack's Mannequin's "Swim," off The Glass Passenger, is a cold-water shock of an anthem about keeping your grasping hope tightly, pulling it toward you, and not letting it go in spite of personal demons. "Swim" is a lifeboat and a life jacket guiding you back to the shore, even if the shore's still away from the light at the end of the tunnel.
The first version of the "Swim" video was a performance piece. But recently Jack's Mannequin released a brand-new "Swim" video, which features friends and fans of all ages, and moving montages of art and animations, all centered on the concept of hope and healing expressed in "Swim."
"Swim" part two was directed by Steven Murashige. Get your high-brow culture fix for the day and watch it, and then check out behind-the-scenes footage from the video and interviews with Andrew McMahon after the jump.
