Hurts are on the home stretch of their Surrender pre-release campaign, but there's one last clip to unveil.
"Wish" is the fifth taste of the duo's third long-player, and unlike "Some Kind Of Heaven" and "Rolling Stone" and "Lights", this is a tender ballad with swooping pianos and Theo Hutchcraft's heartbroken coo. He can find solace in one thing, however - his cape is fantastic.
Bryan Adams - yes, the Bryan Adams - has directed the video.
Surrender is out 9 October on Columbia.
Watch the "Wish" video below.
