Brian Wilson's impressive career was recently toasted on a new compilation titled Playback, and in conjunction with the record's release, "Love and Mercy" has been treated to a new video.
The clip features delightfully retro footage from the recording of the song back in the '80s. The track originally appeared on Wilson's self-titled 1988 solo debut.
"I remember I was drinking champagne this one night and I wrote 'Love and Mercy' in half an hour," Wilson said in a statement [via Brooklyn Vegan]. "I wrote this song because people need love and mercy in their lives and I feel like people love the song, specially nowadays because it's very relatable with what's happening in the world."
Revisit the song's uplifting message by watching its new video in the player below. Playback is out now via Rhino.
