Music video


The music video premiered on South Africa's Soweto TV and then made available globally on YouTube on 9 December 2019.[5] It was directed by Karena Evans and shot between South Africa, Morocco and Ukraine.[5] The introduction is accompanied by a voiceover explaining the concept of "ubuntu" a Xhosa word which means "humanity" in direct translation: "basically, you’ll always need the next person. You know what I mean? So one hand washes the other, the one hand does need the other to clean. That is Ubuntu. To help others, your brothers, your sisters. Even when they are strangers and you don’t know them, you are supposed to help them".[5]


Live performances


The song's live premiere was held on the 2 November 2019 episode of NBC's Saturday Night Live, which was hosted by American actress Kristen Stewart.[6] A second performance at the Annie Mac Show on BBC Radio 1 happened in on 27 November 2019.


Critical reception


Rob Arcand of Spin magazine called the song a return to form, stating that "[i]t's a heartfelt return to the kind of lush balladry that the band built their reputation on, with gorgeous production and performance elements lending weight to the kind of broad, arena-rock universalisms present in the lyrics."[7]
