Deconstructing music videos - Lyrics

Ed Sheeran - Shape of you
This music video follows the main idea of the lyrics about 'I'm in love with the shape of you' with the main concept of the video being based upon two individuals who meet in the changing room of the area they workout in. The idea on body image and the lyrics match well and follow through with the lyrics 'we're going out on our first date' and 'even get in the taxi and kiss in the back seat' which follow the visuals exactly of a taxi with the couple in the background. 


Sam Smith - I'm not the only one
Sam Smith's 'I'm not the only one's music video follows the storyline of a married woman who has a suspicion that her husband is cheating on her which she finds that she was right about. The wife in the music video is wearing her wedding dress with the lyrics 'Denying every tear' with a extreme close up of her eyes crying.










Logic - 1-800(...)
This song follows the storyline about a gay boy who isn't accepted for who he is and is feeling suicidal. The boy then calls the suicide hotline which helps him save his own life. The name of the song is also the suicide hotline number. Lyrics and the video bond well and is very moving to watch. This is with the help of the good performance by actors and meaningful lyrics together.
