Paramore are celebrating their just-wrapped U.K. tour with a new live performance video for their new single, "Daydreaming," the fourth overall single and the third single for the UK from the Tennessee rock band's self-titled fourth studio album. The up-lifting pop/rock track, produced by Justin Meldal-Johnsen will be released on December 2nd. As the song slows down and Hayley Williams sings about dreaming of bigger and better things, the video turns to the very specific, manageable dreams of a couple of young fans: flying to London to see Paramore perform! Seems doable.
"Daydreaming" is one of the quieter, more contemplative highlights from the pop-emo band's big return album, This mid tempo ballad about wishing to build a world that matches the ones constructed in fantasies is one of the fruits of her positive outlook. Lead singer Williams says: "we are so excited to be releasing 'Daydreaming' as a single in the UK. Playing it on the tour we just finished over there was one of my favorite moments in the entire set. Thanks to everyone who came out to the Paratour! Hope every time you hear 'Daydreaming' on the radio it brings back good memories of singing along to it at the show."
When Williams began writing lyrics for the songs that appear on Paramore's first release as a three-piece following the departure of the Farro brothers, she found herself feeling more optimistic about the future of the band. As a song, "Daydreaming" channels The Smashing Pumpkins at their prettiest in a cool way. The song is a throwback to 1990's dream pop. and it's sugar-rush bridge, which is capped by a grandiose rush of riffs and guitars, seems not only designed for maximum lighter (or phone)-hoisting, it's plush enough for Williams' song-ending assertion that she's all right to sound like it's being issued from a safe place ashioned by the crashing music that preceded it.
The video is a triumphant glimpse into the band's recent world tour with behind the scenes and backstage footage. It also features a sort of of storyline as well, so it's more engaging than your typical concert-footage videos. Two Paramore fans leave home, and catch a flight to a far-away London to witness live the band's concert at the British capital's Wembley Arena last September. They manage to sneak into the Williams's dressing room backstage, say hi to her, and run to the arena's front row line before security catches them. How it all ends? The two friends enjoy the concert of their lives!
