Wikipedia article
"'Saltwater'" is a song by English musician Chicane featuring the vocals of Irish singer Mire Brennan. The track uses parts of Clannad's 1982 hit "Theme from Harry's Game" with both re-recorded and newly written lyrics.
It was released as a single in 1999, reaching the number-six position on the UK Singles Chart and becoming a popular trance track in clubs across Europe. In 2003, the song was used in a national tourism campaign for Ireland and also by Belfast City Council in adverts promoting the city.
Music video
"Saltwater"'s music video incorporates images of surfing juxtaposed with the frenzy of a nightclub. The video was filmed in February 1999. The surfing scenes were shot in Woolacombe, North Devon, the location of many beaches that are popular surfer destinations. The club scenes were shot at a studio on Old Street in London as well at the actual Gatecrasher club in Sheffield.
The club was "The Republic, the old venue for Gatecrasher".
