Directed by Justin Schaefers with creative direction by Andy Slater and shot in Los Angeles, the video perfectly captures the song.
“’Sleep’ is all about living in the moment, and not wanting that moment to end,” said Johnny. “It’s about being with someone you like so much you just don’t want to be apart from them – staying up all night, having fun. Actually, that’ exactly what we did when we were making this video! It was such a blast to shoot and I can’t wait to share it with my fans.”
Co-written by Orlando, his sister Darian and Swedish collaborators Linnea Södahl (Zara Larsson, Anne-Marie) and Hampus Lindvall (Zara Larsson), ‘Sleep’ is the second single from Johnny’s upcoming debut EP. The pop Swedish-influenced song about living in the moment and not wanting that moment to end showcases Johnny’s maturing sound and songwriting skills.
