social networking sites to get a mass audience to view our music video.

11. 10. Do you personally believe that music videos are
necessary to make singles or albums a success? Why?
“Yes, because the
concept of it promotes
the song.”
“Yes as people and
mostly I like music
with videos so that it
can be entertaining
and I can actually see
how is the video
organised with
singers.”
“No, because I’m
more interested in
the actual music than
the video.”
“No.”
“No, because if a
song is good than
regardless of the
music video it will
be famous.”
“Yes.”
“No. This is because in
my opinion, music is to
express your emotions
and feelings.”
“Yes, because it paints
a picture of what the
artist is trying to
convey.”
“Yes, because it
helps to understand
songs sometimes,
and gives a story.”
“No I don't think a music video
is necessary as it only just helps
give a visual to the sound, music
must be listened to and
understood for you to enjoy it.
I've heard many songs without
watching the music video and
think it is as successful..”
“No.”
“Yes, because the
musical videos allow
the artist to share
their music to a much
larger audience.”
“Yes, they present the music
in terms of action and
sometimes through that the
definition becomes clear and
more relatable to people.”
“Yes they are, because
usually when music
videos are released its
released on YouTube
which can accessed by
many people across the
world.”
“No, not really because if the
artist has an awesome voice and
can touch peoples heart then a
music video is not necessary
however I also think that if
artists want to make their
singles or albums successful
then making a music video
would be a good idea since the
video can go viral and it is very
easy for people to share videos
online.”
