textual analysis of music videos

I chose boy kill boy- Suzie. The video was released may 8th 2006 the video is mainly of them performing but also has a story going on in the background.

There is a relationship between the visuals and the lyrics as you see a girl walking and they say her name. The chorus lines are ‘countdown to the disappointment’ and in the video the girl’s relationship are falling apart so the lines in the song go with the story of the video. The lyric are a little hard to understand so the video helps pick out what it is they are saying. The word ‘countdown’ is shown throughout the video as a dot to dot. Once you have finished there is know where else to go.

There is also a relationship between the music and visuals at the beginning of the video the band is playing this is a rock kind of thing to do as they are a alternative rock band. The beat is fast and the transitions in the video match. the cuts are quick and the clips stay in time with the music and when the song goes to the chorus the picture changes to the band.

song lyrics -

This is not a movie
Things just ain't the same as your favourite video
Try standing back and move me
next to you's a very nice place to go

Talk talk to Suzie!
"I went through a million choices."
Talk, Set it up for Suzie!
"I listened to a million voices"
And they said...
"Don't let me down" they said
"Don't let me down again"
No no...

Countdown, countdown, countdown to the disappointment
"I'm yours, tonight!"
Countdown, countdown, countdown to the disappointment
"I'm yours, tonight!"
Oh no no no

Read not what the stars say

There's an evil lurking round every door
It's not enough to make you leave me
And I never wanted you to go

Talk talk to Suzie!
",I went through a million choices"
Talk, Set it up for Suzie!
"I listened to a million voices"

And they said...
"Don't let me down" they said
"Don't let me down" they said
"Don't let me down again"
No no...

Countdown, countdown, countdown to the disappointment
"I'm yours, tonight!"
Countdown, countdown, countdown to the disappointment
"I'm yours, tonight!"

Our time is nearly gone
So take another breath
And taste this one more time again
(One more time again)

Countdown, countdown, countdown to the disappointment
"I'm yours, tonight!",
Countdown, countdown, countdown to the disappointment
"I'm yours, tonight!",
Countdown, countdown, countdown to the disappointment
"I'm yours, tonight!"
