LYRICS.
Blue moon
You saw me standing alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a love on my own,
Blue moon
You saw me standing alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a love on my own,
Blue moon
You knew just what i was there for
You heard me saying a prayer
For someone i really could care for.
And suddenly there appeared before me
The only one my arms could ever hold
I heard someone whisper, "please, adore me"
And when i looked my moon had turned to gold.
Blue moon,
Now i'm no longer alone
Without a dream in my heart,
Without a love of my own
Without a love of my own,
You saw me standing alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a love on my own,
Blue moon
You saw me standing alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a love on my own,
Blue moon
You knew just what i was there for
You heard me saying a prayer
For someone i really could care for.
And suddenly there appeared before me
The only one my arms could ever hold
I heard someone whisper, "please, adore me"
And when i looked my moon had turned to gold.
Blue moon,
Now i'm no longer alone
Without a dream in my heart,
Without a love of my own
Without a love of my own,
LYRIC ANALYSIS.
As this song is a cover of Richard Rogers and Lorenz Hart the words have a different meaning to what they did originally. Still the song is about being alone but it also relates strongly to Manchester City football club and how they are what he lives for. The lyrics are linked to the video through the beginning and end where Liam admires the shirt and wears it with pride.

OVERVIEW.
The blue moon song is written to unveil the 2011 Manchester city kit. (Lead singer Liam Gallaghers club) The start of the video is very much dedicated to the teams shirt but throughout the bulk of the video it is purely performance based. I like the open format of the room they're in but realise it is unrealistic that we could get a space like that. For example the lit flooring is hard to achieve without a large budget. Also they have a large band with 4 well suited members that would be hard for us to find due to the lack of willing people who have the right look.
Shots I think we can take from this video are panning shots of the band and also some close up on the lead singer to emphasise his role as a main man in the video. Another idea we could possibly take from this video is the use of quick shots through the band members and instruments. the mood set here is peaceful and light reflected in the colouring of the set and so on. It is atypical performance video set out to put the song lyrics first and visuals second.
A good start Jack but take the time to look at what Kelly Maxwell has written, the combination of the analysis grid AND further specific analysis is what is needed for a level 3 and 4
