I am now rushing to get this out to you asap as we collectively grieve, with the tremendous loss of singer Martin Phillips, whose funeral is on Friday.
The Chills played just two South Island gigs, before leaving for an extensive 21 date tour through North America, which began in October 2022. This tour was their first international gigs in three years. It felt like then that we were all emerging from our COVID isolation and hibernation, but how good it was that we were there then.This was the final song of this The Chills set in hometown Dunedin. The affectionate and loyal fans were showing their dedication by singing along and happily dancing. I love to capture this atmosphere and not once has anyone ever told me not to film them.
'I Love my Leather Jacket' is a bittersweet tribute to Martyn Bull (The Chills former drummer, RIP) and by leaving Martin Phillipps his leather jacket, we have been also gifted this gem of a song.
The Chills are Martin Phillipps (Guitar and Vocals), Callum Hampton (Bass and Backing Vocals) Todd Knudson (Drums and Backing Vocals) Erica Scally (Guitar, Keyboards, Violin and Backing Vocals) and Oli Wilson (Keyboards and Backing Vocals)

Lyrics
I wear my leather jacket like a great big hug
Radiating charm - a living cloak of luck
It's the only concrete link with an absent friend
It's a symbol I can wear 'till we meet again
Or it's a weight around my neck while the owner's free
Both protector and reminder of mortality
It's a curse - I cannot shirk responsibilities
From the teacher to the pupil it's a gift to me
So I love my leather jacket and I wear it all the time
I love my leather jacket|
Повторяем попытку...
