Reevah, whose real name is Aoife Boyle from Londonderry, said: “We initially had other ideas for the video before the current situation prevented us from our plans.

However, we thought we would take this opportunity to create something that would connect people and lift everyone’s spirits together.

“You Said, Tell Me has a light-hearted, conversational feel to it so we really wanted to capture lockdown in a fun way for this video, as well as family, friends and the Reevah band we have been recruiting various musicians to be involved.

“We asked people to video themselves dancing, singing, miming, dressing up or acting out along to the track in their homes that reflected how they’ve been feeling through lockdown.

“It was great to see how everyone individually reacted, not only to the song but how they’ve interpreted isolation too.

“While we’ve all been isolated during the pandemic, we’ve shared a universal experience and I wanted that to be reflected in the video and I hope it’s one that everyone can take a little bit of happiness from.”
