MusicDish Review: "I Am Not I" by Liza Fox


As she slips into unconsciousness, an evil darkness takes over her angel-like spirit and soul. In her dreams, she fights, allowing her warrior self to take hold. This is the setting to Liza Fox’s new music video, "I Am Not I." Produced by Jus Grata, "I Am Not I" is the true epic of Liza Fox and her struggle against battling her bipolar disorder.

In her bedroom, there is white sheets and white and black hearts hung on her white walls. Also, one can see a witch warrior and a dark angel. This is a representation of the two contrasting sides of bipolar disorder. The music does a great job in the use of symbolism. The harp and vocal choir sounds represent the angel side whereas the saxophone is the darkness. This gives the piece some unique jazz and church choir elements all inside a pop musical setting.

In her video, there is a book of spells where one can see the spell for "Defeating Boogeyman." Part of the spell reads,"I am light. I am one too strong to fight. Return to dark where shadows dwell. You cannot have this Halliwell. Go away and leave my sight. And take with you this endless night." One can imagine this as being the hallmark to anyone battling this type of mental illness. By speaking out about her bipolar disorder, Liza Fox brings attention to this challenging disease.

Liza Fox Reveals Bipolar Disorder In "I Am Not I" Music Video


US Billboard and UK Music Week charting singer tells a story of her bipolar disorder in the new music video "I Am Not I".

Not long ago, Liza Fox met a mysterious gentleman who cast a magic spell on her. Every midnight, the singer wakes up seeing his shadow above her bed. She experiences extreme mood swings. Liza feels a growing desire to meet the mysterious man again. During the ordeal, she transforms from an innocent angelic girl to a witchy warrior.

The singer's personal transformation is reflected in her new album "I Am Not I" produced by Hungarian DJ Jus Grata. Each of the six songs, including the title track, is a unique story revealing a facet of her multidimensional personality.

Premiering on July 13, 2015, the music video for "I Am Not I" was directed by an eccentric and multitalented barber who, like the singer herself, is fascinated by astrology, esotericism, and the paranormal. "I told my barber what's happening to me, and immediately we came up with the theme for the music video – a mystical story in the medieval style," says Liza Fox.

In the music video, events unfold like a dreamy inception: As Liza is sleeping in bed, a snake crawls on her like a seductive Serpent to possess her spirit as she sings "I am not I when I love you tonight." She looks into the mirror and sees a witchy warrior. Meanwhile, a man dressed like a monk is reading satanic scriptures, casting his evil spell as Liza is falling deeper into darkness. Chained in the medieval torture chamber, she tries to escape through levitation. The video ends with her warrior self setting the water on fire. "By burning water, I claim victory over darkness and bipolar disorder," the singer explains.
