Yoni Z – UP! [Official Music Video]

Yoni Z – UP! [Official Music Video]

Three weeks after his fourth single, “UP!” off his upcoming debut album was released, Yoni releases another state of the art music video, and this time, he wanted it to be especially for children.

“When we began envisioning the video for “UP!” children, outer space and lots of innocent imagination resonated deeply and I began scripting.”Yoni admits that typically, he enjoys creating content that remains true to the art no matter the subject matter as he expressed in “Odeh,” “Ma Naaseh,” and other projects. But when he decided to create a kid-friendly music video, it, too, had to be stellar. “It’s Pixar or nothing,” Yoni jokes. “My brother, Yossi, who has a background in film as a graduate of NYFA (New York Film Academy), took on the challenge of producing this video. As I wrote the outline, he began intense research of animation and teamed up with an animation studio to create the final product.”

Aside from the art and animation, Z always tries to bring meaning into his work. In the story, we see from the very beginning how the children are chasing a light in the sky, but it seems to evade them every time they seem to come close to it. Eventually, when they all come together for their friend in need, a bright light beams from within each of them, teaching that the light we often seek and chase in life is actually within ourselves. We just have to look within and find it. When we asked the video producer, Yossi Z, how it felt getting back into the film scene, he laughs: “It took four months of daily work and a team of fifteen people to create, so I just hope people of all ages will enjoy it.”

This is the final single off of Yoni‘s album. The next move will be the release of the fourteen track debut album, with G-D’s help, at the end of the summer. The album is produced by Jewish music producer, Yanky Katina.

Lyrics:
Every breathe I take
Every move I make
I’m breathing You

Every word I say
Every single day
I speak of You

You bring me up
You take me down
My heart’s awake and I see You now
And through the nights when I’m afraid
I close my eyes and I feel Your grace

So hold my hand Don’t let it go Show me Your face Let the whole world know When I go high When I fall low I know You’re there to lift me UP! X 15 I know You’re there to lift me UP! X 15 I know You’re there to lift me UP! Every breathe I take Every move I make I’m breathing You Every word I say Every single day I speak of You You bring me up You take me down My heart’s awake and I see You now And through the nights when I’m afraid I close my eyes and I feel Your grace So hold my hand Don’t let it go Show me Your face Let the whole world know When I go high When I fall low I know You’re there to lift me UP! X 15 I know You’re there to lift me UP! X 15 I know You’re there to lift me UP! You’re always there Watching me from above the clouds I feel You near Every time I close my eyes If I climb too high You’re always there to bring me down If I fall to the ground You’re always there to lift me UP! So hold my hand Don’t let it go Show me Your face Let the whole world know When I go high When I fall low I know You’re there to lift me up I know You’re there to lift me up I know You’re there to lift me up I know You’re there to lift me There to lift me There to lift me UP! X 15 I know You’re there to lift me UP! X 15 I know You’re there to lift me UP! © 2018 YONIS MUSIC INC.
