Someday
Someday opens Tinie's latest album demonstration, his words are that it opens the album beautifully. The chorus to the song was originally sung by Eric Turner but after some deciding Tinie decided that he wanted it to be sung by a female too add more emotion to the song, he wanted someone young, new and British and went with Ella Eyre.
The song is about people who go about there day as normal get back to work and carry on with there regular job but they dream that happiness is not far away. They will keep reaching for their dream and they will be succesful in what they do. Its about having personal goals and having a dream to strive for. Reaching for the sun is Tinies metaphor for striving towards happiness.
It's a very upbeat song and this is why I thought that it would be a good song to do because it highlights emotion in it but in a positive way and this is different to most other songs that might be chosen. It also includes both a make and a female so it would allow more audiences to interact with it. It also includes rap and typical pop conventions so it would be interesting to do because it mixes with genres a bit.
The lyrics in the song show that the character has gone from a life with very little to a more succesful one that they have created for themselves with nothing but hardwork. The lyrics are very sting and powerful. "W**kers hating on me cos I did it single handed" this line shows us that people don't like the success that this person has made for themselves. "Victory is the greatest, defeat is real sour" it shows that they never give in and keep going until they our succesful.
My idea for the music video is a performance idea, I think that we should find a dark room and just keep it very simple and have the artists standing in front of the camera moving around looking at the sky etc.
The idea would be to use lots of clever special effects and play around with the editing of the piece a lot. I was going to try a concept video for this because the lyrics in this are powerful and I had some ideas but they were to hard to work on because they required a lot of settings and people which wouldn't be available so I had to change my idea.
