I used to have this house that I lived in with a few guys in my band and at some point,\u201d Urban explained in a press release, \u201csomeone gave us this Polaroid camera. We used it to take pictures of everybody and everything \u2014 crazy stuff that happened. We had all of them posted on a big board and I so clearly saw that the minute I heard the song.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This new song is another in a series Urban is releasing in advance of his album coming this fall. It was written by Sam Fischer, Steph Jones, Geoff Warburton, Griffen Palmer and Mark Trussell. And as for the video, shot at a backyard pool party, Urban shares that the swooping and the freeze framing made for the perfect backdrop for the song about <em>the night it was taken\/I didn\u2019t have a clue\/that someday I\u2019d be something more\/than just a boy in a Polaroid with you.<\/em><\/p>\n<div class=\"deferred_content\"> Embedded from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/w0oDCgfV79A?feature=oembed\">www.youtube.com<\/a>. <noscript class=\"deferred_content\" data-deferred-info=\"{&quot;type&quot;:&quot;iframe&quot;}\"> <iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/w0oDCgfV79A?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen>\t<\/iframe><\/noscript>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u201cI was sent a really simple treatment,\u201d he said of the video directed by Dano Serny. \u201cIt was all centered around a pool party and this contraption called a MoCo that\u2019s programmed to do what you see in the video \u2014 swoop in, pan out, look around and swoop right back and do the exact same motion again and again. You\u2019re able to place people in these different places, positions and then freeze moments. It was pretty trippy. There was one scene \u2014 I was off camera \u2014 there was a couple on a diving board and this girl continues to straddle this guy in between takes and I\u2019m thinking \u2018Man, they\u2019re really committed to this role.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTurned out that almost all of the couples were actually couples.\u201d <\/p>\n<div class=\"author\">\n<div class=\"description\"> Alison makes her living loving country music.
