Olly Murs sends love to his ex via graffiti, cappuccino foam and a handwritten letter in the emotional visuals for his heartbreaking pop song, "Dear Darlin'," third single lifted from English pop singer's latest third multi-platinum studio album, "Right Place, Right Time," which shot to the top of the charts last November. The video shows us a more vulnerable and sensitive side to the usual cheeky chappy we see singing and dancing around in his other popular tunes.
Rose to fame on The X Factor UK in 2009, placing runner-up, the 29-year-old "Troublemaker" singer contemplates a lost love while writing the heart-warming ballad "Dear Darlin'" with his friend and fellow singer-songwriter, Ed Drewett and Jim Eliot. "Writing with Ed and him being my friend helped, as we sat there for hours before writing, going over old relationships and recalling their scenarios," Murs said of the song. "It's about writing to someone to tell them how I feel about losing someone. It's not the kind of song you'd expect me and Ed to write, as we're bubbly characters, but we were able to open up to each other."
Murs sings along to an up-tempo ballad as he seems to be missing a previous relationship he once had. Love hurts! "Dear Darlin'" sees Murs making the transition from pop playboy to soulful balladeer. Murs lays his emotions bare in the dramatic video for his latest single, which Shot in Los Angeles and depicts Murs' heartbreak when he's dumped by his girlfriend, as we see heartbroken Murs sat alone in an apartment thinking about a recent break-up and reflecting on the arguments with his girlfriend in their new home while they struggle to communicate their feeling towards one another in writing, and sadly the relationship goes south.
The two try to do just that by communicating their feelings through a letter, but neither can find the right words. Later on in the promo Murs is attempting to win back the love of his life with a series of romantic gestures and puts pen to paper to write down the song's poignant lyrics. As he and the girl are seen walking the streets around the town with the girl been given a coffee saying 'I (Heart) You' in it, then walking by a busker playing the guitar with a cardboard sign 'saying I Miss You' next to him. She later seen walking by a wall with the words 'These Arms Are Yours To Hold' and she is last seen writing 'Dear Olly I Miss You Too' in a notebook before ripping the page out and scrunching it up whilst Murs is seen on top of a tower.
