Your Blue Mug, lyric video sample
- Song language English
- 34-second excerpt
Style and material
“Your Blue Mug” is an English song about staying: let the years rush past and find us here, two chairs pulled close, a long day set down, and a laugh and a hand to hold in place of a golden promise. A cosy entryway built from clay, with a coat stand, a leather bag, boots, an umbrella, a sleeping dog and a clock, and the words on the wall. It is stop-motion clay, animated frame by frame. A small, handmade room was chosen over a big scene because the song is about quiet things at home.
About this clip
Your Blue Mug is a 34-second lyric video sample for a song in English.
Visual style: stop-motion clay. Stop-motion clay: a scene made of clay, animated frame by frame.
Across the clip: The clip is made in soft clay and felt, like a small handmade model of a cosy home. It starts in a living room with a green sofa, a reading lamp and a wall clock, then shows two wooden chairs by a wood stove with two coats hanging together by the door. Later come a hallway with a bag and boots, two mugs and an open ring box on a table, and at the end two hands holding each other beside a blue mug with a heart.
The first and the last line of the clip:
“If the years move fast, let them find us here”
“Just your laugh, your hand, your hand to hold”

Lyrics (caption text)
The same text as the captions of the video.
If the years move fast, let them find us here
Two chairs pulled close, your coat on mine
When the long day weighs on your shoulders
You can set it down; I'll stay all night
I don't need a promise dressed in gold
Just your laugh, your hand, your hand to hold
