In “Ghosttown” the world has ended, and the only thing left standing is two people holding on to each other.

The Song


Written in three days with Jason Evigan, Sean Douglas and Evan Bogart, it is a power ballad about the end of civilisation — and the hope that survives it.

The Video


Jonas Åkerlund directed the video, set in a ruined city, with Terrence Howard as the other survivor.
