Blog 3-Song choice

When choosing what song our group was going to choose we all agreed that it should be a song which has some emotional impact and the lyrics which were abstract so we could really put a variety of ideas together and try to have a video that the audience wanted to think about and imapct on. The first choice we came up with was to do a song called "fifteen" by Taylor Swift. However, we decided against this song as the lyrics were to transparent and told the story through the lyrics anyway so our music video would be strange because we had no room to change the lyrics and we would just be acting out the lyrics which doesn't show our creativity. In the end, we have decided to do a song called "Brown Eyes" by Lady Gaga. I think it was important that we choose an artist that we all were famillar with and new her style as this is what we had to include in some blogs and in our own music video. We chose this particular song because it was unusal for lady gaga's normal dance, fast beat songs but had something unique about it. The song has a slow beat and the song is all about love and heartbreak. As a group, we really thought that we could make a video that links into the lyrics and impacts the audience well. Lady Gaga, is an artist that has a strong and unique style surrounding her and thought we could use this to make our music video unique. www.youtube.com/watch?v=0x1XT6GCD24 These are the lyrics- In your brown eyes, walked away In your brown eyes, couldn't stay In your brown eyes, you watch her go And turn the record on And wonder what went wrong What went wrong If everything was everything But everything is over Everything could be everything If only we were older Guess its just a silly song about you And how i lost you And your brown eyes In your brown eyes, i was feeling low 'cause they're brown eyes and you never know Got some brown eyes, but a soft face I knew that it was wrong So baby, turn the record on Play that song Where everything was everything But everything is over Everything could be everything If only we were older Guess its just a silly song about you And how i lost you And your brown eyes Everything was everything But baby its the last show Everything could be everything But it's time to say goodbye so Get your last fix, and your last hit Grab your old girl with her new tricks Honey yeah, it's no surprise I got lost in your brown eyes In your brown eyes Brown, brown eyes Your brown eyes Brown, brown eyes Got some brown eyes Brown, brown eyes
