Lyric analysis
The video its self does not have a narrative, yet you can see that illustration is
used through the actions that the actors do. Mostly the video is disjunctive as the
video does not really relate to the lyrics. The setting and dancing are completely
irrelevant.
The opening shot uses an establishing shot, with an
extreme long shot, it establishes the setting of the
rural areas of the video. At this point in the video
there is no lyrics and an almost techno music is
playing. This gives the video an asynchronous vibe as
techno music may be something you associate with
the city more. Linking in with the genre (alternative)
and being different and unconventional.
