Synopsis

An animated counterpart to Blimp Rock's compact relationship song, the video follows a romance colored by regret, mismatched feelings and an amicable separation. The narrator admits to past mistakes, recognizes that the relationship no longer works, and still appreciates the affection shared along the way. Rather than treating heartbreak as a dramatic final defeat, the clip reflects the song's gently comic, good-natured belief that love is worthwhile only when it is caring, reciprocal and respectful.

Factoids & Trivia

• The video is an animated debut from Blimp Rock's 2013 self-titled album.

• "The Love That Treats You Right" is one of the album's shortest tracks, running for 1:57.

• The song was written by Peter Demakos and credited to Blimp Rock. It was later included on The Burning Hell's 2013 album "Don't Believe The Hyperreal."

• The album was released on May 28, 2013, with the video presented as one of its promotional clips.

• Blimp Rock's broader concept was built around raising $700,000 for a concert in a functioning blimp over Lake Ontario, giving the band's otherwise down-to-earth relationship songs an intentionally extravagant mission.

• The track's upbeat treatment of breaking up without hostility fits the band's tendency toward humorous, conversational songwriting rather than conventional romantic melodrama.
