Becca Stevens - Never Mine (Official Music Video)

‪@beccastevensmusic‬"Never Mine"
From WONDERBLOOM (GroundUP '20) available now: orcd.co/wonder...
"I wrote “Never Mine” with Kaveh Rastegar, who also plays bass on the recording. The lyric and the melody feel rooted in Irish/Appalachian roots, painting a hazy daydream lost in longing for something that’s not yours to claim. The music video for “Never Mine” was filmed on 9/23/20 by Jep Jorba in a single shot at the town bar of Els Prats de Rei, Catalonia. We filmed the video at 3x slower than normal speed (making for 14 minute takes). I slowed down all my mannerisms by timing my breaths, to make my cadence look “normal” when sped back up. The scene is dressed with Prats locals who came by to support, along with Mike League (of Snarky Puppy), Nic Hard (WONDERBLOOM co-producer & mixing engineer), and my husband Nathan Schram who were all in town working on a project at Mike League’s home studio."

Lyrics:
Only wanna touch you
In the morning light
Revel in that warmth of yours
Tangled up with mine
Only wanna feel your heart
Pulling like the tide
Filling up the reverie
With the swaying of our sighs
The swaying of our sighs
Swaying of our sighs
Swaying of our sighs, love…
I am only human
Alive in my desire
But you are not for me to claim
Or love you like you’re mine
What’s the harm in dreaming
Wanting for a taste?
Lighting up the love
One touch at a time
One touch at a time
One touch at a time, love…
Two souls wandering
Trying to find a way
Looking for a signal home before
Night gives into day
I think I know the difference
Between wrong and right, but
Can’t resist, I’m falling for
What was never mine
What was never mine
What was never mine, love…

Truly deserved Grammy nomination, Becca - always so intimate and emotional!

[@FusionHowie]

Becca Stevens is our Joni Mitchell !! I am responsible for watching this video at least 50 times between my work and drying my 58 year old eyes. Amazing THANK YOU Becca! If you watch this entire video with ears open and didn't feel like you just ate a giant steaming bowl of life .......then there is something seriously wrong within .

[@beccastevensmusic]

[@steveowen7475]

How good is this women watching her for years.....inventive just has a way ... Michelle Willis......Jacob David Crosby all fabulous influenced mixes.....keep doing what your doing

[@acoldhand]

I swear there isn't a talented female songwriter/musician out there who doesn't instantly get compared to Joni Mitchell, even if their style is completely different, haha. I think you bring something original to the world of music and I love it. This might be my favourite song of yours yet.

[@elyon3105]

Elle a tout enregistré en 2 fois plus lent au moins !!!! Extraordinaire, ça ne doit pas être facile !!!

[@maunlio]

What have i missed all these years!

[@plotkinowen5072]

[@paulpaul00]

[@michael_caz_nyc]

I flipped for her-voice, on the David Crosby album. The track "Glory" was just Haunting ( along with the entire album ). She is so talented. oNe LovE from NYC

The harmonisation is sending chills down my spine

[@TyMcHugh]

Beautiful video!!

[@borboruwek]

2:26 Michael League - his expression can't be confused with anyone else :D

[@georgerussell2947]

Description says it's kaveh on bass

[@jimmyneutron4632]

this was amazing

[@RubyWaller89]

Waw, love it!!

[@downriverproductions]

This is amazing.

[@shanehagan]

this is terrific

[@chriswilliams2304]

So Michael League is talking about Einstein in the background while Becca Stevens is concentrating so hard on the relativity of time!

[@chriswilliams2304]

By the way, do I get a prize for being the first to comment on spotting the E=mc²? Like a free beer in that bar the next time I'm in beautiful Catalonia ?

[@pocabromaproduccions2]

@@chriswilliams2304 you got it!

[@FrancescoGuardi]

Laugh about myself: watching Becca I think she's singing my thoughts while watching her singing.

[@electronmess]

I so wish to see the original footage of Becca singing the song "in slow motion" :D

[@beccastevensmusic]

There are clips of it on my instagram page

[@SimonBrisbane]

@@beccastevensmusic so much patience! 🙂

[@alexjeffreys2546]

You're just so damn good.

[@andreryjoch4028]

Wonderful sounds. Influences of Petr Gabriel & Tony Levin?

[@superrantam]

Great song as always :) The video was a surprise... That was clearly a bar in Spain. The Mahou beer, the slot machine in the background, the football pictures on the wall... Wondering how you ended recording it there :)

[@beccastevensmusic]

It's the town bar where Michael League lives in Spain! We took a "break" during a day of filming and ended up re-envisioning the whole video there in that space.

[@superrantam]

@@beccastevensmusic Thanks for taking the time to answer. I do love your music. Regards

[@j.cordero6965]

@@beccastevensmusic very late, but is that Mike in the red shirt in the back?

[@p3rformer]

The guy in the red shirt at the bar look like michael league^^ Great song

[@Th3EpitapH]

nice.

[@gotrottin]

u special

[@timot91]

Is that Michael League behind?

[@beccastevensmusic]

Yes! And Nic Hard.

[@kantalu]

[@pablozatti5600]

this is to beautiful, I need to know those chords please !

[@Guitar7885]

Wow, did she have to act and sing this at like .5x speed? Playing it back at .5x speed it looks like regular timing rather than that kinda time lapse look. Must’ve been hard to do.

[@rodolfomarques28]

Man, I’ve thinking on this effect. Maybe it’s a Merge of two different takes!

[@3rdfriend]

Look at the discription, buddy. :) it's like .33 speed.

[@Guitar7885]

@@3rdfriend Oh thanks idk if I just didn’t check last time or if it wasn’t included, but awesome.

[@beccastevensmusic]

One take! Each take took around 14 minutes.

[@Bhuyakasha]

2:30 - music clefs, sines and cosines, mass-energy equivalence. hmm...

[@bubzulu]

E=MC2

[@elbobcat]

Beautiful. I love Becca's voice and talent but I don't think it would be inappropriate to give a small nod and a hat tip to Imogen Heap. Again, very beautiful.

[@Th3EpitapH]

actually, not just nice. really good acting too on becca's part.

[@gia248]

I thought that only Polish use accordion, anyway WOW WOW WOW

[@beccastevensmusic]

There's no accordion! Believe it or not.

[@creamundi3280]

2:07 she nearly couldn’t keep it together 😂

[@beccastevensmusic]

True! he whispered something funny.

[@sarahclement1805]

so... is this song about how she's in love with Jacob Collier?
