Choosing a Song.

Choosing a song, I thought was quite difficult because of the choice that I had that band had to offer. I was given four songs to look at, all of a decent length so I listened to all of them as least 3 or 4 times so that I could grasp the lyrics and work out the beats and melodies. I wanted to pick a song that would be lively and had a kick to it, so that the music video would be more lively and interesting. This ruled out one of the songs because I found that it was too slow, and the lyrics were hard to relate to and to create ideas from. I found that another song that I listened to took over a minute to get into so I felt like that I couldn’t really express my ideas without the use of the lyrics of the song. From here I was left with two songs, both equally as good as one another. The first song was consistently good through out but I felt like I couldn’t represent the lyrics of the song with a good narrative that could accompany it. From here I was left with one song, and ideas were easy to come up with because of the context of the song.
