Manic Street Preachers have debuted a video for ‘Hold Me Like A Heaven’.



The track is the latest single to arrive from the Welsh band’s new album ‘Resistance Is Futile’.



Speaking about the song, Nicky Wire explains: “This track sprung from reading Lines on a Young Lady’s Photograph Album by Phillip Larkin, and his poem Aubade as well. It was the last lyric written for the record and I knew it had to be special.



"It’s got one of my favourite ever lines, which is “what is the future of the future/when memory fades and gets boarded up”. We’ve long been obsessed with writing something like Ashes to Ashes; I think this is the closest we’ll ever get.”
