Music Video Analysis By Lydia Cole

The Naked and Famous- All of This http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9MR3wfzLOio ,[object Object],The instruments here depict part of the performance aspect of the video, which is usually featured during the verses of the song. What I find the most unusual about the performance in the video is that although all the instruments can be heard at once throughout the song, never at any time can more than one band member be seen- each receives their own close-up, and the whole band are never seen together. This could be to highlight the song’s anthemic lyrics ‘all of this is tearing us apart, I don’t know where us or this start’. When looked at in terms of the band members themselves, and they way they are presented in this fashion, they are always ‘apart’,  ‘us’ being them as people, ‘this’ being them as a band.

[object Object],The lyrics also correspond with the visuals in a much more literal way; sometimes they actually appear on the screen, during the chorus, word by word, like a n auto-cue . Sometimes they are written in a typed font, other times hand written.
Robyn- Be Mine http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_PDNRTCuPyQ ,[object Object]
[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
The story of the video fits perfectly with the lyrics of the song, leaving little interpretation up to the viewers themselves.  It is one of unrequited love,  where Robyn, the main character has feelings for a man with a girlfriend. They have some sort of history , though it is not entirely clear if they were ever together, and as the song and video are from her perspective, the viewer never really knows his feelings for her. This type of story has a common theme, it has been featured in so many films and TV, so the viewer will likely be familiar with it. As well as this, it is very likely to be something they have experienced in their own lives, so immediately, Robyn herself would become much more relatable and human to a viewer to a fan who had heard this song and watched it’s video. The second image is taken from a dream sequence in the video, what Robyn wishes would happen at that moment, or a flashback of a previous event.
