Take Me Back - Jonathan Ogden (Official Video)

- Take Me Back is the title track from my latest EP, and really the central theme of the project. This song means so much to me and has become a pretty significant marking of a chapter in my life too. There isn’t much I need to add that isn’t already told through the lyrics. I sometimes describe my songs as ‘prayers set to music’ and each song I release is a genuine prayer of my heart. In the time since this song was released I’ve already seen some answers to the prayer. After a long and confusing season of life where I’ve been unearthing questions I was too scared to ask for most of my life. Some days I have felt as close to God as ever, and others I have felt lost and confused. Life just seemed to be getting more and more complicated and I longed to return to the simplicity of my youthful relationship with God. What I’ve experienced since then I can only describe as a ‘restart’. Going back to the foundations and relearning the basics of the gospel all over again.
I had the honour of working with the team from Salt Studio on this project. They have become dear friends of mine since meeting them in Korea, and I was so delighted to be able to shoot some of these scenes with them last time I was there. We spoke about the song and its meaning and I left the rest in their capable hands. Their ability to explore concepts through visual art and tell stories through the simplest of details really stands out to me. I’m so delighted with what they were able to capture and convey in video form, for this song.

I am a simple man. I see John Ogden and I click like
And those who know, know.
I’m a little more complex. I hear John Ogden, think “wow Rivers and Robots vibes,” google him and discover I was correct, then hit subscribe.
Same❤❤❤❤
The imagery is pretty striking. They all lost the wonder in the things they enjoy because they started looking to those things for meaning and satisfaction instead of God (modeling, career, motorcycling, running free). But now that the wonder has worn off, they realize where it came from in the first place. God gave you gifts and talents to enjoy. But you can't make them an end in themselves. "Don't take the world but lose your soul." "Help me find a way back to You."
This opened my eyes to meaning of the song thank you, im glad to see glory of God even more!
I'm a disciple of 47 years and this is a refrain all through the years Jonathan! Just letting you know! 🙂 one day it will be different, permanently! Hallelu-Yah. Beautiful song.
Read the description and it's pretty much the same what I'm going through right now🙃 Some days I feel very close to God whereas sometimes I'm so confused, lost and broken. I know that He is telling me to let go and let Him, but my flesh is doing otherwise. Don't know when this cycle is gonna end but I believe He will not leave me, nor forsake me😊.
Yes Lord, take me back to the start again, let me dwell in the completeness of Your love💗
Once again than you for this song and thanking God for using you✨💟
Jonathan is such a talented artist! God blessed him with such a great gift
"I'm just a lost soul without you in my life"
Jonathan your music always always strikes a cord, not just because it's a vibe, but because it's real!! And it's God honoring. So Praise God for your music.
AMEN
Thank you for showing us the right path Lord Jesus Christ
Honestly you’re one of my favourite Christian artists. I remember discovering you through Rivers and Robots and your Twenty Four album got me through Lockdown as seasons changed. I have resonated with your work and music. Thank you for being a vessel for God 🤍🥹 it’s needed; these prayers 🙏🏽
Bruhhhh this song, these visuals, the lyrics--everything is beautiful
Thank you bro!!
Korea + England = Winning Combination 🎉
yeah welcome to KOREA. :-) 부흥이 오고 있습니다. 대한민국에! 청년들과 다음세대들에게도!
@@yslvondecila7AMEN🙌🏻💕
I relate to this song so much that the lyrics really hurt me and speak to my soul of how much I need God.
Beautiful. God be glorified in our hearts forevermore. ❤
Your song is really inspired of the parable of the lost son. As a pastor's kid and with a strong faith that we listen in your music, I couldn't imagine you would share about those terrible moments when we realize we wasted time and we have to repent and come back to the Lord 🙏 I learn by heart your lyrics because it remains me that the one who think he's standing has to be careful not to fall ⚠️
God bless you brother in Christ Jonathan 🙏
I'm impressed. An evolution. I love your song and the lyrics, the framing, the capture of the actors' expressions, the details, the amazing colors, the cinematographic editing...In short, I love the whole thing. The way Jonathan Ogden, the singer and creator of the song, appears in the scene, like, it reminds me of appearances by the legendary Stan Lee in Marvel films, giving his identity to his characters. Genius! I love seeing art connecting people to God and glorifying Him. Congrats to the whole team. May God always be the center of your inspiration. 🔥
Stan Lee 😂 hahahhaha thanks you made my day!
Fantastic Jonathan. Beautiful song and the video is so well done. Outstanding share. Keep ‘em coming! 🎶👍
This song is great. I love the smooth sound and the heart you put into it all. I can't imagine you are crafting songs from any place other than your heart, and I wanted to let you know your vulnerable love and struggle in your God-relationship is beautiful! The intimacy you openly share in your songs is so inviting. It makes me feel like sitting with God regardless of how distant or complicated I'm feeling because the most beautiful thing is that He is always with us, giving us His fullest attention. Please keep writing your songs. And thank you for sharing them.
I can’t wait. Each music video is a blessing and an expression of the creativity God has given you, Jonathan Ogden. It's so beautiful to see art connecting people to God ❤✨🔥
God bless you for your music Johnathan Ogden..much love from Ghana😂🫶🎉..
