Rules ft Bandit 'Could Have Been So Good' by Greg Barnes

Promonews - 18th Sept 2025

Greg Barnes brings us into the world of a couple on the edge of a breakup, navigating a rollercoaster of emotions while on a road trip, for dance producer/DJ Rules's collaboration with singer Bandit. 

The video for Could Have Been So Good, Will Stevens and Ainy Medina play the pair who's relationship is witnessed almost entirely from inside the classic Mercedes saloon in which they are travelling on a long journey, captured on a continuously rotating camera. 

The device allows Barnes to chart the highs and lows of the couple's affair, match-cutting the rotations to show the couple at different places and in different moods. This complements both the rhythm of the house track and Bandit's poignant lyric, leading to the final revelation: this could be their final trip together.
