Rudimental Release Stunning Video For James Arthur Collab 'Sun Comes Up'
The band take a leaf out of Bieber's book with this amazing dance video...
Three months after the song was released, Rudimental have finally dropped the video for their brilliant James Arthur collaboration - and it's AMAZING.
The dance-based visual adds to the feel-good vibes of 'Sun Comes Up' as the inspirational narrative follows one (seriously incredible) dancer battle through his doubts and be lifted back to his best by a team of insanely talented dancers.
'Sun Comes Up' has become another huge hit for the band, thanks to its tropical-leaning pop sound and Arthur's lovely vocals, and we're sure this video will only make it bigger.
I've been waitin' such a long, long, long time to feel it
Swallowed by the waters around me
I know I took so many wrong, wrong, wrong turns to see it, whoa
But I danced through the blisters at night
And I laughed 'til I cried and cried and
I ran 'til my feet couldn't run no more (no more, no more)
And I sang 'til my lungs were burnin'
'Til I know I'm alive, alive
I sing 'til I can't hear words no more
Suddenly the sun comes up
And I feel my love floodin' back again, yeah
Until the sun comes up
And I feel my love comin' up again
Suddenly the sun comes up
And the dark is gone
We made it to the dawn
And I don't miss you anymore
When the sun comes up
I can feel my love comin' back again
It wasn't easy tryin' to run with these handcuffs
I had to sleep through such a cold, cold, cold night to see it
Green flashes hit me right where I'm standing
Sunlight cut into the bone, bone, bone, start the healing
But I danced through the blisters at night
And I laughed 'til I cried and cried and
I ran 'til my feet couldn't run no more (no more, no more)
And I sang 'til my lungs were burnin'
'Til I know I'm alive, alive
I sing 'til I can't hear words no more
Suddenly the sun comes up
And I feel my love flooding back again, yeah
Until the sun comes up
And I feel my love comin' up again
Suddenly the sun comes up
And the dark is gone
We made it to the dawn
And I don't miss you anymore
When the sun comes up
I can feel my love comin' back again
Give a little light
To get a little love back
Give a little light
To get a little love back
Give a little light (won't you give me)
To get a little love back
Give a little love
Give a little light (won't you give me)
To get a little love back
Turn your light on me
Give a little light (give a little)
To get a little love back (to get a little love)
Give a little light
To get a little love back, oh
I danced through the blisters at night
I laughed 'til I cried and cried and
I ran 'til my feet couldn't run no more (no more, no more)
I sang 'til my lungs were burnin'
I'm alive, alive
(I sing 'til) I can't hear words no more
Suddenly the sun comes up
And I feel my love
Sun comes up again (my love)
Until the sun comes up
And I feel my love comin' up again
I can feel my love, I can feel my love
Sun comes up
I can feel my love comin' back again
Dance videos have enjoyed a resurgence after the success of Justin Bieber's Purpose visuals - especially 'Sorry', for obviously amazing reasons - when he opted out of the spotlight to let dancers bring his songs to life with their moves, and Rudimental have done it brilliantly here.
'Sun Comes Up' has peaked at number six after being released in June as the lead single from the band's upcoming third album, which we could not be more excited for.
While we don't know who - besides James Arthur - the band have been in the studio with this time, they have never disappointed us before.
Their second album, We The Generation, featured TWO collaborations with both Ed Sheeran and Anne-Marie and saw them reunite with Ella Eyre and MNEK.
Until it's ready we're fine watching this on repeat, to be totally honest...

WATCH JAMES ARTHUR'S 'CAN I BE HIM' VIDEO BELOW
And now my heart has been stolen
You took me back in time to when I was unbroken
Now you're all I want
And I knew it from the very first moment
'Cause a light came on when I heard that song
And I want you to sing it again
I swear that every word you sing
You wrote them for me
Like it was a private show
I know you never saw me
When the lights come on and I'm on my own
Will you be there to sing it again?
Could I be the one you talk about in all your stories
Can I be him?
I heard there was someone but I know he don't deserve you
If you were mine I'd never let anyone hurt you
I wanna dry those tears, kiss those lips
It's all that I've been thinking about
'Cause a light came on when I heard that song
And I want you to sing it again
I swear that every word you sing
You wrote them for me
Like it was a private show
I know you never saw me
When the lights come on and I'm on my own
Will you be there to sing it again?
Could I be the one you talk about in all your stories?
Can I be the one?
Can I be the one?
Can I be the one?
Oh, can I, can I be him?
Won't you sing it again?
Oh, when you sing it again
Can I be him?
Oh sing it again
Oh, when you sing it again
Can I be him?
I swear that every word you sing
You wrote them for me
Like it was a private show
I know you never saw me
When the lights come on and I'm on my own
Will you be there, will you be there?
Can I be the one you talk about in all your stories?
Can I be him?
Can I be him?
Can I be him?
Can I be him?
