Music video
A music video to accompany the release of "Attracting Flies" was first released onto YouTube on 10 March 2013 at a total length of three minutes and twenty-seven seconds.[1] The video is a play on the song's chorus' line "Little grey fairytales and little white lies". It features Aluna as the protagonists of various well-known fairytales, however each of them have been given a gritty, urban twist. For example, Little Red Riding Hood is being stalked late at night by a man (played by George) and his dog, and Sleeping Beauty passes out after overdosing on anti-depressants.
