I am a big fan of Christina Perri, she is one of my favorite musical artists ever, (she’s tied to Demi Lovato) and I found my newest favorite song/music video, A Thousand Years.
This is made for the newest Twilight Saga movie, Breaking Dawn, that is coming out in late November. Christina Perri specifically wrote this for the movie, because that was her biggest goal for this year, is to have one of her songs in one of the Twilight movies. And she did accomplish that goal, and she did it beautifully.
I think the music video was beautifully done. I love the beginning with her with the one candle in her hands. I think that was the perfect beginning for this song, and it really shows her true, natural beauty as the candle flickers the light upon her face.
And I also love the room full of candles, and the end, when she was facing the ocean at sunset.
At first when I saw the last scene with the ocean, I thought that it was rose petals, and then I thought it was leaves, but then I found out that for sure that it was actually feathers.
I could have not have the scenes from the movie in there, but I guess they have to be since that’s what she did the music for. But I wish that they would have maybe put those scenes in black and white, mostly at the part of the wedding, because that’s the part where she’s in the room with all of the candles, and it’s blue because of the windows. And then when they switched to the wedding clips, then it’s almost like the colors slapped me because it was just so bright, and kind of color, especially compared to that blue room. I wish that they would have made that part black and white, but then at the kissing scene then they would have make it fade into color, to add drama to the music video, and to add kind of a “This is going to be a really good ending” feeling.
But over all a really great song, a really great music video, and I love it to death, and I hope you do too.
That's great! You should do more reviews! :D
ReplyDeleteThanks. I also did a book review for Ignore Everybody and 39 other keys to creativity if you want to see it.
