Following the completion of our draft music video we had taken a couple of weeks ago, we have had numerous meetings as a group to discuss ideas and possible concepts that we could use within our music video for Misery Business. This has been a struggle for us to the say the least, trying to understand and make sense of all of the practicalities that need to be taken into consideration when re-shooting our video ensuring that the video is of high quality from our individual skills and strengths.
Similar to our original idea, we wanted to focus on the love triangle between our cast members Georgina, Joanna and Paul, demonstrating the jealousy and envy felt by the cast members throughout the video. We shall incorporate both band shots and narrative shots as we felt that this would be an interesting music video for our intended target audience to watch. The main synopsis of our narrative is that Georgina is the singer of Paul’s (the man stuck in the love triangle) band and is late for the bands practice and focuses on Georgina trying to get to the band practice over the location of London, although she doesn’t know meanwhile that Joanna (the girl trying to get Paul) has taken her place in the band and starts to flirt and sing with Paul. Georgina eventually makes it to the band practice and is shocked about what’s happened, she snatches the mic and starts to take over. By the end of the music video, it is clear that there is a resolution of the situation and Georgina wins over Paul and continues in the band singing.
We came back together as a group and decided to look closely at the lyrics more so than we did before to try and gain inspiration for the new music narrative.
Paramore - Misery Business - Lyrics
I'm in the business of misery
Let's take it from the top
She's got a body like an hourglass
That's ticking like a clock
It's a matter of time
Before we all run out
When I thought he was mine
She caught him by the mouth
I waited eight long months
She finally set him free
I told him I can't lie
He was the only one for me
Two weeks and we caught on fire
She's got it out for me
But I wear the biggest smile
Whoa, I never meant to brag
But I got him where I want him now
Whoa, it was never my intention to brag
To steal it all away from you now
But God, does it feel so good
'Cause I got him where I want him now
And if you could then you know you would
'Cause God, it just feels so
It just feels so good
Second chances they don't ever matter
People never change
Once a whore, you're nothing more
I'm sorry, that'll never change
And about forgiveness
We're both supposed to have exchanged
I'm sorry honey but I'm passing up
Now look this way
Well there's a million other girls
Who do it just like you
Looking as innocent as possible
To get to who
They want and what they like
It's easy if you do it right
Well I refuse, I refuse, I refuse
Whoa, I never meant to brag
But I got him where I want him now
Whoa, it was never my intention to brag
To steal it all away from you now
But God, does it feel so good
'Cause I got him where I want him now
And if you could then you know you would
'Cause God, it just feels so
It just feels so good
I watched his wildest dreams come true
And not one of them involving you
Just watch my wildest dreams come true
Not one of them involving
Whoa, I never meant to brag
But I got him where I want him now
Whoa, I never meant to brag
But I got him where I want him now
Whoa, it was never my intention to brag
To steal it all away from you now
But God, does it feel so good
'Cause I got him where I want him now
And if you could then you know you would
'Cause God, it just feels so
It just feels so good
