The video for Blur's song "Parklife" from their album of the same name uses unconventional elements for an alternative rock music video in the 1990s. It features comedy scenes of a double glazing salesman instead of focusing on the band performing together. Visual effects are used to enhance the lyrics and music, such as upside down footage and umbrellas opening in time with the beat. The protagonist is a salesman instead of a band member, and intertextual references to the Beatles are made through a scene of the band crossing the road.
