Chase and Status - Time was released in September 2011 and uploaded on the 29th. It is licensed to, produced by and directed by Mercury Records Limited.
This songs lyrics relate to a story of heart break. Delilah, the featuring artist, is singing about the actor, how she wants him to have the time for her and not mess her around. Its as if there is a narrative of honesty, and a narrative of rebellion within the one song and video.
The music video displays these lyrics in a visual form. It shows a loving family being torn apart by a disloyal, tempered husband. It shows the emotional effects on the children within the family and this is often shown at point where the instrumental slows down. The husband gets arrested after losing his temper and assaulting his wife. When in prison, the family visits him where he appears to show remorse, and regret for what he has done. This being a twist to link the happy beginning of the video with a forgiving end. This presents an emotional atmosphere with the link between the lyrics and visuals.
There is little performance in this video, but when there is, Delilah is show singing through a wet pane of glass. The water on the glass smartly links us to the emotional lyrics as the water running down the glass links nicely to the tears of the family.
