The guitar player, Andrea Curti, one of the main songwriters of the band, describes the song’s message for the listener: “The Way To You tells the story of a person who, at a specific event in their life (milestone of my life), looks back at their experience and personal situation. The protagonist of this reflection, even without finding the “right person” for them, knows that somewhere that person exists and wonders if this sought-for elusive individual shares their same doubts and desires. Meanwhile, the protagonist lives through this quest with anxiety and impatience (I thought it would be easier to find someone to love and after all this time I’m still looking for you) and can’t help but wonder when this moment of happiness and satisfaction in sharing life with the “right person” comes (Where are you now? Why the hell we’re not together yet?). Everything is brought to life in the music video, with these two main characters unknowingly “chasing themselves” while living their everyday life, giving a message of hope by “finding each other” in the end”.
The video was shot in only one day, at different locations in Milan, Italy. In addition to playback scenes by Peter, main voice, and Andrea, second voice and guitar player, intercut with shots of the actors, the four members of the band are seen singularly in cameos with the main characters, while all of them appear together in the final scene. This final scene was filmed under the rain, with many logistical challenges, as the crew was surprised by a storm during the shooting – this unexpected event surely helped increase the emotional impact of the video.
