It's My Life è il singolo dei Talk Talk, pubblicato dalla EMI nel 1984, che anticipa il loro secondo album It's My Life (1984).

Descrizione

È il primo singolo estratto dall'album ed è stato ristampato una prima volta nel 1985 ed una seconda, rimasterizzato, per promuovere l'antologia Natural History: The Very Best of Talk Talk del 1990. Si tratta anche della prima collaborazione tra Hollis e Friese-Greene[2].

Video musicale

Nel videoclip originale, diretto e supervisionato da Tim Pope, il cantante del gruppo Mark Hollis passeggia solitariamente per lo zoo di Londra, osservando le varie specie di animali, e le sue camminate si sovrappongono alle varie riprese naturalistiche di fenicotteri, leopardi, zebre, antilopi, canguri e struzzi, tratte a loro volta dal documentario della BBC Life on Earth.

Nel video c'è un effetto grafico voluto dal regista, una sorta di scarabocchio nero che si trasforma in una spirale, in un paio di ali e, alla fine, si sovrappone alla bocca del cantante, pasticciandola e nascondendola alla vista del pubblico, per non far capire se stia cantando o meno in playback.

Per volere della EMI fu registrata una seconda versione del video, in pratica la clip originale proiettata su uno schermo verde dietro Hollis che canta e suona, mentre i suoi due compagni della band, a loro volta, mimano in modo volutamente comico e con gesti esagerati il playback del brano[7].
