“When we reimagined the whole More Balls To Picasso album we always wanted to do an orchestral version of ‘Tears Of The Dragon’. Antonio Teoli scored it and we recorded it, then we called up the film-maker Leo Liberti who previously shot a load of live stuff for me in Brazil that was fabulous. We found this amazing location, an enormous old school brewery that was almost like a renaissance building, and we made up the orchestra so they looked slightly zombified. All the HBOH band members are in the video and I gave them all instruments to play. The whole thing was brilliant madness. Leo also came up with the idea of having a ballet dancer interpreting the song, and she was amazing, poetic, and that adds an incredible extra-emotional dimension to the video.”
