Lyrics // Ideas for Music Video - Drunken Fumbling//Ego Honey

The final decision for the music video was Drunken Fumbling by Ego Honey. I took aspects from other music videos such as 'R U Mine?' by Arctic Monkeys and 'Basket Case' by Green Day but i then also took aspects from films such as 'Scott Pilgrim vs The World'. This would give the video aspects of modern day and late 90's indie rock which would therefore fit the genre. 

Within this idea, the characters of the music video would be: 

Female - Love interest 
Male - Females Boyfriend 
Band - Made up of drums, electric guitar, acoustic and bass
The 'protagonist' Male - He is in love with the female and wants to be with her

The story: 

It seems that the song is about a boy who has feelings for a girl but may have messed up with her in the past creating tension. She has later moved on and found herself someone else. However, the boy still loves her and wants her back. This therefore makes him write the song about her. He watches her throughout the song from the 'end of her street' (taking the lyric from the song). In the end the love interest and her boyfriend have an argument at a party and the only person that is there for her is the boy who has feelings for her. They then later rekindle their feelings and end up together. Ending in a cliche happily ever after. However, still keeping an aspect of seriousness due to the final shot being of the band playing and the female watching.
