Lyrics - Catie Curtis, Burn Your Own House Down

Why do I bother, that's what you say
And I know you're tired but don't fade away
It's been a long year, it's been a long day
You can't remember when it was not that way
When everything was okay

But I'm not gonna let you burn your own house down
I know you don't like living in it now
The halls are empty and the walls are bare
But I believe you, you're gonna find your love in there

Your door was open and your love left
Now all that you want is to burn the rest
But if your heart is open some love will come back
I know you don't believe me, I can see you light a match
I can see you light a match

But I'm not gonna let you burn your own house down
I know you don't like living in it now
The halls are empty and the walls are bare
But I believe you

I'm not trying to say you got no right to complain at all
What I'm saying is I believe in you and I will not believe
That everything is lost

Get up on the roof and look around
Get up on the roof and look around
Get up on the roof and look around

I'm not gonna let you burn your own house down
I know you don't like living in it now
You've got to see that somebody cares
But I believe you, I believe you, I believe you
Whoah, oooooh
You're gonna find your love in there

Intertextuality in Music Videos

Intertextuality within Music Videos

A quick presentation to introduce the idea of Intertextuality in Music Videos



Intertextuality in general is ALL media; from games, television, music and film. For our music video, we will not be using much in terms of intertextuality as we believe it to be unnecessary. For our particular song, a parody or mocking another music video/film would be superfluous - unnecessary.
However, we don't necessarily have to make a form of intertextuality noticeable unless certain audiences understand the references, yet myself & Luke still agree on limiting the use of intertextuality within our music video.

Folk Country Pop Social Group Ideas


Presentation:
My target for the presentation was typically women between the ages of 25 to 35. I presented to teachers at my college which provided me verbal answers and advice. Many of them didn't know who I was, which allowed no favouritism to happen making them a neutral party from my view point.
Each teacher had similar characteristics but some differed allowing me to receive data of a broad range.
After asking my social group, it was concluded that my third & conjoined idea is the one I'm going to choose and elaborate upon. Despite the third idea being the most popular, it was a combination of 1 & 2. Some staff preferred idea 1 and some preferred idea 2 and not combined. But, some compared to most is a significant difference allowing me to conclude what the focus would be around.


However, it was suggested afterwards to include some aspects of the second idea as it would improve the narrative behind the lyrics. The suggestion was the 'silhouette', a particular idea that I liked as a metaphor for a backdrop behind my artist. Silhouettes can represent many a things, in this case, a dark figure that has haunted them throughout their life; someone/something that has attempted to persuade my character to commit themselves in certain ways.


Besides this one suggestion, my target audience that I interviewed, were all impressed with what I had to offer.
