James Atkin shares his Splash Story ...
EMF are number 1 with Hello People featuring Stephen Fry Hello People with its’ indie groove is a call to stand with tolerance against the hate-myths of immigration whilst putting a smile on people's faces.
Why Stephen Fry?
Unbelievable was on his ‘100years of the BBC’ happy mix (along with Dancing Queen and Mrs Robinson) but he was a fan way back before it was a global smash. We met him at an EMF gig at the Astoria in 1992 and he kindly agreed to appear on an EMF song in 1995, reading a dystopian poem about self-destruction on ‘Glass Smash Jack’ from our Cha Cha Cha album. The message of our new song ‘Hello People’ is about tolerance, who better then to verify the facts and emotions about immigration in the face of a flood of hate speech than the most intellectually rigorous and entertaining brain in the world and our very own National Treasure the great Stephen Fry.” - EMF.

The Hello People video features is a celebration: It features the faces of EMF’s fans. EMF asked the fans to send in selfies of themselves and their families and cut them into a reel which they project onto the band’s performance of the song. "It’s great to see how people come in all shapes, sizes, colours and cultures, it feels great to welcome them all into the video as EMF welcome people of all shapes, sizes, colours and cultures into our country.”
