do music videos add or take away from the song
>>129164057take away. MTV ruined a generation of musicians
>>129164057I hate music videos. When someone shows me a song and posts a link to a music video it pisses me off. Now back when MTV was playing them all day it was fun to watch. But I'm not actively seeking out a music video to a song.
>>129164057In a case of someone like Grimes, music videos can retract from the overall experience of the song. Like the music video to genesis. It’s so awful
more is more, as yngwie said
>>129164057Garish, over produced crapI listen to music, I don't watch it
>>129164057they almost always add.>>129164962at least the iconic oblivion music video makes up for that. music video for shinigami eyes is also great.
>>129164057https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wYqZiK6gGo8 this is the only music video i like
i'm a music video hater too most of the timevery few videos i think are noteworthyand idk when or why artists/bands started to mass produce them for ALL pre-release singles to promote an album but it pisses me off so muchand don't get me started on music videos made for songs released decades ago (FUCK that psycho killer mv)
>>129164057music videos are only good like 10 years down the line to serve as a snapshot of a bands era or fashion from a scene/place in time, typically every video sucks and they're even worse if someone is trying to making a music video without the band in it anywhere, go make a fucking short film
>>129164057it CAN add...300 dead teenagers; true storythe fault of a very rich manthe incident: 2014 Sewol Ferry disaster in Koreahigh school kids were ordered to remain on the sinking ferry while the captain and staff left to safety on the lifeboats, leaving them to drownin Korea, musicians couldn't directly mention it, so they told the story indirectly.the more familiar you are with the tragedy, the more you see (the tilting tea, going under the tables, etc)the girl's face against the water, surrendering to death, is something elsea great example of a music video adding to a song:https://youtu.be/9xWiro_tS1k?si=ar-uiiQIKbgt9oYpamazing
>>129167885- the girls in the forest in the white gowns = they've died and gone to Heaven- the rain on the window = the sea-water rising to the windows of the ship- climbing the ladder away from the water- the girls at the table as one, singing sadly, slides away from them toward the camera
