Originally released in 2006, the single, “In all the Wrong Places” off his “Windmills of the Soul” album, from California rapper/producer Kero One finally gets the music video treatment. This song is arguably the best known track from Kero One throughout his 10 year professional music career, topping iTunes charts back in 2006 and since being uploaded to youtube as a stream in 2008, has now garnered almost half a million views.
With the passion to execute interesting visual interpretations and with the support of his Kickstarter fans, Kero One has managed to get together a music video for “In All the Wrong Places” that takes viewers on an strange journey complete with throwback references to “E.T.,” early 1900s war imagery, and diamonds falling from the sky. Although one might wonder why Kero One waited this long to finally come out with a video for a song he made 7 years ago, he claims: “I have a personal connection to this song. It’s always been a favorite of mine and I dreamed of having a music video for this song one day. There wasn’t a director whom I felt could do it justice at the time, so when I finally found one who could, I knew had to do it”. You can get the single on or amazon.

Been searching for a fire in a universal cold
The only warmth I found was from tucking in a mold
The hands of time were closing the patience I could hold
I could hold
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
Been wasting all my time chasing ceilings known to grow
We chase them til we’re tired, and we chase them til we’re old
I found something that changes and turns my rust into gold
into gold
This time I’m gonna break out and be free
Stop needing what I want and start wanting what I need
With my God and my friends and family
They’re filling up my soul this is how it oughta be
We’re all in this pursuit trying to bloom without a root
My hands have worked the soil, built the buildings for the view
At times I do forget, where the thankfulness is due
Where it’s due
This time I’m gonna break out and be free
Stop needing what I want and start wanting what I need
With my God and my friends and family
They’re filling up my soul this is how it oughta be
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
This time I’m gonna break out and be free
Stop needing what I want and start wanting what I need
With my god and my friends and family
They’re filling up my soul this is how it oughta be
