Closing Time (Semisonic song)
"Closing Time" is a song by American alternative rock band Semisonic. It was released in March 1998 as the lead single from their album ''Feeling Strangely Fine''. Their signature song, it was written by Dan Wilson and produced by Nick Launay. It was nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Rock Song in 1999. It reached #1 on Modern Rock Tracks.
The song was written for drunkies to get their jackets and go home.
Jacob Slichter has also indicated that the song was written by Wilson "in anticipation of fatherhood" and that it is about "being sent forth from the womb as if by a bouncer clearing out a bar."〔(A Hit Single and the Heart-Wrenching Story Behind it ), by Claudia Ricci, ''The Huffington Post'', posted February 8, 2011, retrieved February 27, 2011〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Perennial Co-Writer Returns With An Album Of His Own )〕
==Music video==
The music video was directed by Chris Applebaum. It features two continuous shots, running side by side on the screen. One side shows the band playing the song in a rehearsal space. The other side features a woman (played by Denise Franco) as the singer Dan Wilson's girlfriend. As the video progresses, Dan and his girlfriend switch sides of screen, as they attempt to meet up. At the end of the video, they both wind up at the same nightclub. However, they still end up missing each other by mere seconds and never meet. The "trick" of the video is that each shot was done as one long, continuous shot, with no cuts or editing, and therefore relies on proper timing to get the two sides of the video lined up properly.
