Courtney Barnett Covers Kev Carmody and Its Stunning

Courtney Barnett has made a music video for her cover of Kev Carmody’s ‘Just For You’.

‘Just For You’ will feature on the upcoming 2020 edition of ‘Cannot Buy My Soul: The Songs of Kev Carmody’.

The video was directed by Sian Darling who says, “Uncle Kev says that these are simple lyrics trying to get right to the core, that it’s a love song directed at everybody. For him, the message is, “Even though we have our disagreements, I still love you all very much. And I love you as an individual very much.” I want the video to illustrate the power from the simplicity of Uncle Kev’s lyrics and intentions, and the exceptional tenderness in Courtney’s expression of them,” says Darling of the video.

Kev Carmody said, “’Just for You,’ it’s virtually a love song that I’ve directed at everybody, for everybody … It’s trying to get right to the core to say even though we have our disagreements and stuff, I still love you all very much, and I love you as an individual very much. Courtney’s presentation is so beautifully endearing and lifts my original to another plain. Her woman’s presentation puts a whole new perspective on the original lyrics.”

‘Cannot Buy My Soul’ expands on the original 2007 edition with new Carmody covers by new tracks from Jimmy Barnes, Kasey Chambers, Kate Miller-Heidke, Alice Skye, Electric Fields, and more.

‘Cannot Buy My Soul’ will be released on 21 August 2020.
