“Captured in one continuous shot, the video encapsulates the message of the song,” an official statement regarding the ‘Once’ video says.

“A nostalgic yearning for a once-in-a-lifetime moment that can’t ever be replicated. But it’s also a celebration of everything that was achieved.”

Last year, Cantona noted that ‘Once’ was his song of the year, with Manchester City fan Liam suitably geeking out while on tour in Australia.
