To accompany Jeff Buckley’s just-released recording of Bob Dylan’s “Just Like a Woman,” Sony Legacy has issued a new interactive music video that contains 73 different animated cells that can be clicked or tapped to alter the story.
Between the rain, ribbons and bows, amphetamine and pearls, there are approximately 1 sexdecillion possibilities in the video from the technology company Interlude in collaboration with Blind design studios. A sexdecillion is 1 followed by 51 zeros.
The track appears on You and I, a new collection of the first studio recordings Buckley made for Columbia Records.
The video offers the option of creating a unique mix of the song using Buckley’s original 1993 solo performance on vocals and guitar, to include piano, full orchestration and a choir.
“Jeff Buckley fans have always felt a strong personal connection with his music,” Adam Block, President, Legacy Recordings, said. “We hope this video will be a moving way to extend that personal connection by allowing people to express themselves and how the song makes them feel in almost endless ways.”
The video is available on iPhones/iPads and includes an option at the end to create a unique poster with all the cell combinations chosen by the user, which can be shared on social media. Legacy and Interlude previously collaborated on an interactive video for Dylan’s “Like a Rolling Stone.”
