Lyric Analysis

Today I began looking into the deeper meaning of my song 'What A Buzz' By 'Olly Murs'. I began listening to the song and starting to think about what each line means, the song itself brings a very obvious meaning in the way it tells the story. I have embedded the song below for you to listen to whilst I analyse the lyrics.

 

The lyrics are shown above, he starts by mentioning the fact that he is on a date with what we can imagine to be a female. He states that he is laughing like a lunatic at everything she says, this shows the nervousness of the first date and the fact that the vibe in the video would be upbeat and vibrant rather than slow and romantic. 'My Cheeks Are Going Red', he clearly feels nervous around her, this woman must be highly attractive and have an aura around her that would make him feel this way.

The song also makes several references to wine, this is something that I feel could be interpreted within my video and could be used to produce shots and cuts of the couple drinking wine and enjoying themselves together. During the lyrics, he makes it clear that they are sat at a table with a waiter nearby, for this I must use a restaurant scene in order to tell the story through the shots. This is something that I will look into through my research into locations for my production.

The song itself remains upbeat and produces a happy feel throughout, for this reason I feel I need to ensure that the actors I select remain laughing, smiling and looking like they are having a real happy time. The vibe for my music video needs to be bubbly in order to suit the song and represent the type of personality my artist brings to his own music videos and himself as a person.
