American Idol Season 11 winner, Phillip Phillips, “Home” Music Video debuts today on VEVO!
Releasing the video in the middle of “Home’s” Olympic-fueled rise on iTunes is VERY smart. So is the low-key, documentary-style approach the director took, portraying Phillip as a simple working musician. Here’s Phil writing songs the bus, shopping for guitars, performing on stage, meeting fans. He’s a lone figure–a singer-songwriter with only the long and winding road ahead of him, broken by the occasional visit from his girlfriend (the real deal has a cameo). Yep. it works.
I was a little worried about Phillip–especially after he had to miss ALL of his post finale promo due to illness. But with “Home” back at the top of the digital chart, thanks to the Olympics, things are looking up for P2.
