3 Favourite Music Videos Analysis.

My Three Favourite Music Videos are:

  • Tyler the Creator- IFHY
  • The Wombats- Anti-D
  • The XX- Islands 


This is one of my favourite music videos as it is very unique as it shows the characters in the video having plastic heads and walking around in a dolls house. It is very colourful in this video however if you listen to the lyrics it is not upbeat, even the title is 'IFHY' is an abbreviation for 'I fucking hate you'. I like the fact that it is very colour and does not match the song as it makes it contrapuntal. 







Another one of my favourite music videos is Anti-D as it shows a person who looks very depressed surrounded by everyone being happy and happy situations surrounding them. This is representing people who are actually depressed and how even though they are surrounded by happiness they can still be vert depressed. Also as he walks down the street it is all in one shot and all the people he passes have their own little storyline for example he walks past a homeless man with a fancy car getting a man in a suit to clean it. These are all very obscure story lines. 





This is a song by The xx called 'islands' who are a indie pop band. This music video is about the breakdown of a relationship that exists between the couple dancing at the back. The set also slowly breaks down through the video which ends up in flames (representing the couples relationship being destroyed). As the video continues the colours get duller and less people are on the screen. Every time it goes back to the couple it is the same dance moves that they do, every time they go back though there is a slight change again to represent them slowly separating apart
