Music Lyrics Visuals

In todays lesson we listened to a song called 'Solsbury hill' by Peter Gabriel. We were told to shut our eyes whilst we listened to the song and had to visualise what we thought the music video for the song would be. When the song was finished we wrote down our ideas and then shared with our group. In our groups we decided which idea was the best and then pitched it to the rest of the class.

Ideas for what the music video would be included lots of travel through the countryside, family holidays full of adventures and places with busy surroundings such as festivals or cities.

Once all of the class had pitched their ideas as a class we looked at the lyrics for the video to try and come up with some other ideas.

After we looked at the lyrics for the song we watched the actual music video. Most people in the class including me were surprised by the video as it was very unexpected. The video included some animations of a love heart, lots of cabbages and at the end of the video a man and women appearing to be getting married.
