Hey,
Go look up the artist Ed Sheeran. I'll post some of his great music videos below, and I'll try to add my favorite songs on the playlist at the top of the page (make sure you press play before reading my blog each time).
I have a really great idea in my head for my next music video. I hope it will work out! I need participants!
I'll write more tomorrow.
XOXX,
lizzie
p.s... These are the links to Ed Sheeran's music videos. They're all either really funny or they are touching. Please watch them all since this blog is so short! Comment below with your thoughts. If you have any.
Small Bump (my favorite) by Ed Sheeran
This is so touching to me, even though I am not a mother, nor have I ever been almost a mother (or father for that matter... HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DAD! AND TO MOM TOMORROW!). But for me, I guess I can find a similarity to how sometimes I get my hopes up about something and really want something to happen and fall in love with it, but it just doesn't work out, or it gets ended in some way or another. Right now, I specifically think about high school and how that didn't go how I wanted it to.
I also love how the rhythm of the beat in the back ground sounds like a heartbeat, and it's there before we even know what the lyrics mean (an analogy how the baby was there before the mom/dad knew it was), and then it cuts off right before the lyrics state that it was over.
Drunk (another favorite of mine) by Ed Sheeran (cat lovers & others alike will find this video is funny)
This is just great because I want to do this with my cat (except party with hot boys, not girls). And I love the rhythm of it; when ever he sings "drunk" it feels like he's exhaling and unwinding, which is one of the messages I get from the song anyways. Right now the phrase that comes to my mind is "mind blowing" due to those similarities between content and physical aspect.
Lego House by Ed Sheeran (this is just a finny video. Especially if you love Harry Potter/Rupert Grint)
This is great because it reminds me of the Lily Allen music video for "Who'd Have Known" (which has been butchered in a rap song by twisting the meaning of the lyrics) where she takes Elton John hostage (but this is reversed roles). Plus, I love that whole ginger obsession thing going on. I wonder why this was chosen for the music video concept, though. Maybe because I'm sure people get them mixed up or something and he was playing off of that.
A Team by Ed Sheeran
This is an important music video because Ed wrote it for the charity he supports, which is One25 (for "vulnerable" women--I don't know why I have vulnerable in parenthesis. I guess it's because I'm not comfortable with that description of less-than-fortunate women. We're already degraded in society enough as it is).
