Mina Rose shares new track ‘Blind Man Dreams’
Speaking about the new song Mina said,
‘Blind Man Dreams’ is a conversation I have a lot in my head about my inner strength to fight the urges of the digital world. I personified this as almost a child dealer wearing a devil costume: he targets your weaknesses and shows you everything you want, but with this innocent front. ‘Blind Man Dreams’ questions whether we are settling for an online outlet into a 2-dimensional world, rather than escaping into reality and nature; are we actually solving anything through social media activism, or are we really just standing idly by?

The video for Ghost Rider was directed by Mina and in some ways contrasts with Blind Man Dreams in its depiction, she says,
of that side of me who lets go, and takes on everything the world lines up in her stride.From very early on I had a vision of myself painted silver to represent the "ghost rider" or the "inner me...though there’s a lot of Marvel references in there as well.
