INITIAL IDEAS – SINCERITY IS SCARY
Comes into view from road and puts headphones on, beat starts, as the drum hits the person dips (dancingly bopping to the rhythm of the music).
Walks past the someone playing the trumpet in beach hut along seafront.
Comes into view from road or house, puts headphones on when trumpet starts and dances along the street (film Sunday morning when the roads aren’t busy).
Bursts out of door (probably library in Southend) – on first beat.
On other beats, shots cut of swaying in different places
Puts headphones on trumpet beat
LYRICS
“And irony is okay, I suppose
Culture is to blame
You try and mask your pain in the most postmodern way”
In this, as well as upbeat dancing, walks past wall in Southend with the graffiti and skip on the ‘mask your pain in most postmodern way’ – connoting binary oppositions with lyrics and visuals.
“You lack substance when you say
Something like ‘Oh, what a shame’
Its just a self-referential way
That stops you havin to be human
I’m assumin’ you’ll balloon
When you remove the dirty spoon
And start consumin like a human
That’s what I’m assumin’”
I'm sure that you're not just another girl
I'm sure that you're gonna say that that I was sexist
I feel like you're runnin' out
Of all the things I liked you for
I'm sure that you're gonna say that that I was sexist
I feel like you're runnin' out
Of all the things I liked you for
Why can't we be friends, when we are lovers?
'Cause it always ends with us hating each other
Instead of calling me out you should be pulling me in
I've just got one more thing to say
'Cause it always ends with us hating each other
Instead of calling me out you should be pulling me in
I've just got one more thing to say
And why would you believe you could control how you're perceived
When at you're best you're intermediately versed in your own feelings?
Keep on putting off conceiving
It's only you that you're deceiving
Oh, don't have a child, don't cramp your style, I'll leave it
When at you're best you're intermediately versed in your own feelings?

Oh, don't have a child, don't cramp your style, I'll leave it
Why can't we be friends, when we are lovers?
'Cause it always ends with us hating each other

Big idea to include:
- In chorus 1- putting close up on main male singer, low-angle shots and cutting to man and woman having fun…
- In chorus 2- same cut to low-angle shot of main male singer and cutting to man and woman, this time her being herself
- Wide shots of person dancing through either colourful streets or, alternatively, next to brightly coloured streets or graffiti
