1. R’n’B Music- Research
Ne-Yo
Shaffer Chimere Smith better known by his stage name Ne-Yo, is a Grammy Award
winning American R&B recording artist, songwriter, record producer, dancer, and actor.
One song we are considering to use for the music video is Ne-Yo –So sick:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IxszlJppRQI
The fact we think this song is good, is because it will make a good story/video. The
lyrics tell a story and that’s really important. Ne-Yo is a well-known singer and his songs
are relatable.
In the official video I like the fact that it’s talking about a broken relationship,
however some scenes show them happy together. It really does capture your emotions
and lets you in, it makes you feel as thou you’re in the situation.
I feel some of the elements I could use is the boy and girl scenes, it really does bring
out the song more and explains the lyrics. People relate better and more when this
happens. I also like the mountains that are constantly there throughout the video, it
expresses a tough and hard journey to go through.

2. Lyrics:
Mmmm mmm yeah
Do dododododo do-do
Ohh Yeah
Gotta change my answering machine, now that I'm alone
Cause right now it says that we
Can't come to the phone
And I know it makes no sense
Caused you walked out the door,
But it's the only way I hear your voice anymore
(it's ridiculous)
It's been months
And for some reason I just
(can't get over us)
And I'm stronger then this
(enough is enough)
No more walkin' 'round
With my head down
I'm so over being blue
Cryin' over you
And I'm so sick of love songs
So tired of tears
So done with wishing you were still here
Said I'm so sick of love songs so sad and slow
So why can't I turn off the radio?
Gotta fix that calender I have
That's marked July 15th
Because since there's no more you
There's no more anniversary
I'm so fed up with my thoughts of you
And your memory
And how every song reminds me
Of what used to be
That's the reason I'm so sick of love songs
So tired of tears
So done with wishing you were still here
Said I'm so sick of love songs so sad and slow
So why can't I turn off the radio?
(Leave me alone)
Leave me alone
(Stupid love songs)
Don't make me think about her smile
Or having my first child
Let it go
Turning off the radio
