Following the release of
their debut self titled album, which charted worldwide and garnered praise from
both fans and media, Envy Of None, the new project featuring Alex Lifeson
(Rush), Andy Curran (Coney Hatch), Alfio Annibalini and singer Maiah Wynne have
released the video to their latest single “Never Said I Love You”.
The video, a Blacktide
Phonic/Visual Production, Andy Curran describes as having “really captured
the spirit of the song. It’s very cinematic and I love all the moody
cityscapes. The main character is very free spirited, and the
video loosely follows the narrative in a subtle way. I love the
picking of the flower petals: ’He loves me, he loves me not? Isn’t that
what life's all about …wanting to be loved or accepted?”

On the song Andy
continues “’Never Said I Love You’ is a very special one for me and Alf. It
had been kicking around for a while in a demo form and the bed track always
felt like it had so much potential. When we wrote the backing tracks we were
certainly feeling it had some punk/pop overtones, I think we were channelling
late 80’s Brit pop vibrations and I came up with the lyric line
“I Never Said I Love You” again inspired by bands like The Cure,
Depeche Mode, The Smiths & Ultravox who all wrote about broken
hearts on the dance floors around the world ..so I thought it was time to
re-introduce that theme but with something that was more upbeat. When
Maiah and I spoke about this she liked that lyrical hook and ran with it. The
icing was Alex coming in & in the 11th hour adding
the awesome middle section that sounds like pedal steel and the
acoustic guitars in the chorus just elevate it to the next
level. My initial thought lyrically was more of a -back off, I never said
I love you. Kinda like, hey were just friends but I love how
Maiah turned that into something much different.”
Maiah Wynne adds
“This song had great energy from the beginning. Everyone connects and
interprets music from their own unique perspective. When I heard the line
"I Never Said I Love You" I thought of it more from the point of view
of someone who never had the chance to tell the person they love how they felt
before it was too late. Maybe a bad fight in a relationship that never had a
resolution, or a casual fling that never became a serious relationship despite
deeper feelings being there, or friends with romantic feelings that never
became lovers. When I wrote and arranged the rest of the lyrics and vocal
melodies for the song I wrote it with that sense of connection, tension, loss,
and longing in mind.
Envy Of None, feature Rush’s
Alex Lifeson, Coney Hatch founder/bassist Andy Curran,
accomplished producer and engineer Alfio Annibalini and
singer-songwriter Maiah Wynne, their self-titled 11 track debut album
ricochets between various shades of alternative, experimental and synth rock,
throwing surprises at every turn, twisting dark melodies against contemporary
pop hooks.
“We've been working
on and off with all these songs for over 4 years so it’s extremely rewarding to
finally finish them all and share them with the world. It’s like all these baby
birds (our songs) leaving the nest and flying out into the sky …we have no idea
where they will go or who else they will meet along the way - it’s exciting.
People have been very kind and supportive online and maybe the most rewarding
part is hearing die hard Rush fans say they love it. I wasn’t expecting that,
same with fans of Coney and my other projects. This is nothing like what me,
Alex or Maiah have ever done, so having people comment on social media in such
a positive way has really been so cool to see. I’m very proud that we found a
home for these songs and have to thank our label Kscope for believing in these
songs and stepping up to roll the dice and release it. So fun to be part of
this ride.” Andy Curran
