"Hail Mary" is the third and final single from Take That band member Mark Owen's third solo studio album, How The Mighty Fall.[2] The single was released on December 2, 2005.[1] The song was recorded at Sunset Studios in Los Angeles between August 2004 and January 2005. The single received little to no promotion due to the reunion of Take That. The song could be described as "a man having faith in love and thinking how wonderful it can be."[3] The video for the track involves Owen playing a grand piano in a mansion hall, as well as lying on a bed while performing the song. Emma Faraclough was cast as "Mary".[4]
