The Lonely Island feat. Michael Bolton - Jack Sparrow:
- Mocks the stereotypical elements in other songs and imitates well known artists and characters
- Goodwin's point exaggerated as below:
- They show the genre of comedy music; there is more emphasis on things like The Lonely Island getting all the girls like in a stereotypical R'n'B video, but the comedy is added through Michael Bolton singing and pretending to be Jack Sparrow from the Pirates of the Caribbean, which is also an intertextual reference.
- Voyeurism is expressed through the women shown in the video
- There is also a definite match between the lyrics and the visuals, likewise with the music and visuals.
- Shows artists talents in music studio
Chase and Status feat. Delilah - Time:
- The video shows a message against domestic violence
- Chase and Status not shown in video, but Delilah is in the car
- The video gives each character screen time to get each side of the story presented by their moods
- No voyeurism needed
- Lyrics match visuals
- Video made to seem realistic
- Music more upbeat even though sad message
- Lighting shows mood in different scenes
- Artist in car whilst dark and raining could show that whilst violence is happening could associate with the feelings of the women who is the victim of domestic violence as the background where Delilah is in the car conveys a sad and upset mood, just like the woman is feeling when being beaten.
MIA - Born Free:
- Was shocking because ginger people are being battered by the police
- The message created a sense of discrimination, prejudice, and racism in a way
- Lyrics sort of matched visuals as did the music
Ed Sheeran - A Team, Ed Sheeran - You Need Me, I Don't Need You:
- His first song, A Team, is more down beat than 'YNMIDNY' as the first shows that he is a good singer, and the second provides Sheeran with a bit of variety portraying that he can rap as well.
- A Team also gives a more meaningful message to anyone, whereas his other one is mainly talking about himself.
