Runaway (U and I) Lyric Analysis

These are the lyrics to the song that we are using for our music video. They have been analysed and explained.
'Think I can fly, think I can fly' - this lyric suggests that someone is deeply in love with someone, suggesting they could do the impossible, so in this case 'fly'.
When I’m with U
My arms are wide,
Catching fire as the wind blows
I know that I’m rich enough for pride,- this is stating how this person has so much to offer in this relationship and that he/she is proud of it and willing to show it off.
I see a billion dollars in your eyes
Even if we’re strangers til we die
I wanna run away
I wanna run away
Anywhere out this place
I wanna run away
Just U and I, I, I, I, I
U and I, I, I, I, I
U and I, I, I, I, I
U and I, I, I, I, I
Just U and I -the chorus is all about how the person singing wants their lover for themselves, they want to be free with them without any distractions or disturbances. They want to runaway together.
I wanna run
Chase the morning sun
When I’m with U- this is talking about the desire to have adventures and travel with their lover
Give it all away
Catching fire as the wind blows- this suggests that love and romance are worth more than anything in life.
I know that I’m rich enough for pride,
I see a billion dollars in your eyes
Even if we’re strangers til we die 
I wanna run away
I wanna run away
Anywhere out this place
I wanna run away
Just U and I, I, I, I, I
U and I, I, I, I, I
U and I, I, I, I, I
U and I, I, I, I, I
Just U and I- The overall song is about sharing an adventure with someone they love and have a passion for.

Lyrics:  The song is about a couple with a a controlling girlfriend that is abusive towards her boyfriend, pushing him away but not wanting him to actually leave her. '   "I always say how I don't need you, but it's always gonna come right back to this, please don't leave me." Genre / mise en scene: The song is a Pop rock, dance pop song. whereas the video genre is horror/thriller. Camerawork: The camera is often seen following Pink, there is often the use of low angle that makes Pink appear powerful. Editing: Often the shots are continuous,especially when they are fighting at the start, they are also quite jumpy and choppy to go with their fast actions. There is a lot of back and forth with the use of continuous to show the set and the scenes. I...

Textual analysis of Toxic - Britney Spears

                                                         Britney Spears TOXIC Performance – When she is on the phone, it acts as if she is telling the story whereas the shots of her in her white suit is aimed to be more sexual and less story based. She performs every now and then in her see through suit where she dances and its quicker shots. Whereas when she’s walking on the plane its longer shots and slower crops, the shot on the plane tells more of a narrative. She is sexualised throughout the whole of the music video; however, some parts are more sexualised than others are. Shown by the costumes she is in and also movements, she is quite confident and out there, giving her a powerful image. Although the plane is filled with men she is dominant over them. Lyrics - Helps tell the story or give a general feeling or mood. Don...

Semiotics Theory by Barthes

The Theory Semiotic theory is the study of signs and symbols by a man named Roland Barthes. He researched how an audience views and interprets a piece of media. He believed that audiences looked for signs to help them understand the narrative of the media being presented. The signs are based on expectations that the audiences had due to how society believe in myths and old tales. The signs are a connotation, so a word, an image, a sound etc. Denotation is what it means literally, so for example, the word cat signifies an animal that meows or when marketing a business may use a logo with the name featured. Over time though the symbol within the logo will be the only thing that is needed as the symbol itself is recognisable and has more meaning. An example of where this has been done is for Nike. There is the logo, so the Nike tick, with the word Nike or there is the logo tick with the slogan 'Just do it'. However, where the brand has become more recognisable, Nike are...
