Song Ideas

Throughout the summer I was noting down songs I found interesting that could potentially aid us in our music video project.

Gossling - Heart Killer

This song is more alternative with a very distinctive voice that could potentially be hard to portray realistically.


Civil Wars - If I Didn't Know Better

This is a slower song with a lot of narrative potential to accompany the performance.

YELLE - L'Amour Parfait

This is a foreign song which could be interesting to work on. It is more modern which could potentially allow for more modern and 'out there' themes in the music video. Also, there are a few french lyrics, most of them are repeated, which means it might not be that hard to learn for our performer.

ASTR - Razor 

  

This song is more upbeat and fast-paced with dark lyrics. This could allow for more interesting themes in the music video.

Eilidh Hadden - Close To Home

Although this song is by a solo artist, it could work with a girl group or having back up singers visible in the music video. 

YADi - Sahara Heart

Although almost 4 minutes long, this song can be cut easily to a suitable time. I really like the edgy-ness in this song.

Sir Sly - Gold

This might work if we wanted a male singer.

Lana Del Rey - Damn You

This is one of Lana's unreleased demos that I think is a pretty simple yet powerful song. The only problem with this is that Lana has a very distinct voice so it might potentially be hard to create a believable lip-sync.

CHVRCHES - Lies

This song is fast-paced and I like it because I feel a studio performance music video would be beneficial to this song, and I can imagine a powerful female performance around a studio when listening to this song.
