Week 7

I was late filming and needed to start as soon as possible. I wanted to start my storyboard, and so looked at the lyrics, it is a very emotional song, which sounds great when sang live. I wanted to keep this in the video, I didnt want the video to take away the emotion of the song. So I had to analyse the lyrics carefully before planning my music video.

I heard, that your settled down.
That you, found a girl and your married now.
I heard that your dreams came true.
Guess she gave you things, I didn't give to you.
She is singing as if she is talking to him, its obvious from 
the first part of the verse, a person who she was previously 
with is now with another women, and he is happier with her.

Old friend, why are you so shy?
Ain't like you to hold it back or hide from the light.
Suggesting he doesn't want to talk to her about it. 

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited.
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it.
She is still in love with him.
I'd hoped you'd see my face & that you'd be reminded,
That for me, it isn't over.
She is letting him know she still loves him, but she hoped 
he'd see her and he would love her again but she is 
sad that that hasn't happened.

Nevermind, I'll find someone like you.

She is saying it doesn't matter anyway, 

she will look for someone like him to move on with.
I wish nothing but the best, for you too. - saying "too" suggests he hopes 
the best for her or she hopes he hopes the best for her.
Don't forget me, I beg, I remember you said:-
"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead"
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead, yeah.

You'd know, how the time flies.
Only yesterday, was the time of our lives.
It feels like not so long ago they were in love 
with each other and now its over.
We were born and raised in a summer haze.
Bound by the surprise of our glory days.

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited,
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it.
I'd hoped you'd see my face & that you'd be reminded,
That for me, it isn't over.

Nevermind, I'll find someone like you.
I wish nothing but the best for you too.
Don't forget me, I beg, I remember you say:-
"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead", yay.

Nothing compares, no worries or cares.
Regret's and mistakes they're memories made.
Who would have known how bittersweet this would taste?
This suggests that all worries were put aside, as there love
was that strong she didnt doubt it. but she has to move 
on now she made mistakes, and she regrets them but has 
to keep them as past memories and move on.

Nevermind, I'll find someone like you.
I wish nothing but the best for you.
Don't forget me, I beg, I remember you said:-
"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead"

Nevermind, I'll find someone like you.
I wish nothing but the best for you too.
Don't forget me, I beg, I remembered you say:-
"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead"
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead, yay yeh yeah.

In all the videos I watched of her singing the song, they were all live. It was her in a long black dress in front of a microphone, with a piano in the background. This suggests that this song is meant to focus on the artist and her voice. So I intent not to make the music video to complicated or heavy, to distract the audience from what is meant to be most important her voice.

The song was too long and so I knew I would have to cut it down, but I would do that in the editing room after I had filmed everything.

Draft Storyboard.
