"Mended" is a song by Australian singer songwriter, Vera Blue and was released on 26 May 2017 as the second single from her second studio album, Perennial (2017).
Blue told Triple J's Veronica & Lewis, “I was in a stage where I was thinking about past relationships and my co-writer Thom, [he] came up with the idea for the title. It reminded me of all the things I haven't said and people I haven't quite let go of… It's basically about not mending with someone and making up with them. Not necessarily getting back in a relationship but letting go of the pain and the hurt, saying sorry.” [1]
In an interview with The Music AU, Blue added “It’s funny because you think the song is going to be about resolution, but we haven’t quite made it there yet.”[2]
Music video
The music video was directed by Cloudy Rhodes and released on 14 June 2017. Rhodes said; "I wanted to make a film where we witness the triumph of a young woman rising-up to the experience of love. I wanted Vera to be the protagonist of the film who falls from the night sky, out of the darkness into the light - her falling is a metaphorical representation of ‘falling in love’. Mended to me is all as about the female experience and that's what I tried to convey through the visuals in this clip." [3]
