Self Esteem ft Moonchild Sanelly 'Big Man' by Piers Dennis

Promonews - 25th June 2024

Rebecca Lucy Taylor (aka Self-Esteem) teams up with Moonchild Sanelly to usher in the Big Man era - a massive tune with the banging pop video it deserves from Piers Dennis.

Dennis sets the scene for these charismatic performers to play out the roles of Big Men, as they see them. And that involves - and they maybe being faintly satirical here - doing lots of cleaning, and other household chores.

In fact, the director's latest collaboration with Self Esteem provides them with a perfect opportunity for the pair to unleash their unbridled female energy - as well as revel in Taylor's acerbic lyrics.

And Dennis reveals the project began with a reference to one of the all-time great pop vids... by Queen.

"Rebecca sent me the track with a question: how do we make the Self Esteem version of I Want To Break Free? This is the result," he says. "Like everything Rebecca and I do - there’s a message here, but it’s got to be delivered with fun. Like salad and chips."
