"Light of Day" was penned by Eoin Hayes 22 years ago, after his friend died. He recently collaborated with Cian Foley to put music to the lyrics. Colin Shanahan of Digicol Photography and Media Productions then made a powerful video to accompany the song.
Here's the video:
Light of DayOur friend Eóin Ó Haodha wrote a song a number of years ago for a good friend of his that died tragically, it has taken till now for him to release this song. To coincide with his release, he brought Colin Shanahan on board to help him to make a video for the release. This video was shown for the first time during last night's Suicide Prevention Concert. We were delighted to be asked to help out. Its a hard watch, and very close to the bone, but the message is very clear, its ok not to be ok.
Please give this a share and ask your friends to also share it also.
