Lyrics And Visuals
Examples:
- Quotations in speech bubbles
- Holding money as lyrics about money is heard
- Crossword puzzle filled in with lyrics
- Photo of Spanish guy when he is discussed

- The story is told through a magazine, it is told in a linear story about a relationship.
- Explaining story, images like the images in her head - magazine uses motion and comes to life.
- Fashion magazine, teen girls magazine in an 80's style - perhaps targeting an older audience and perhaps fetishising youth.
- IRONY - Her image is always changing, different subcultures expressed, she is playing with the idea of image, which may be understood by a mature audience (unsure who she is?)
-  Taking the mick out of standard 'love songs' and is more bothered about her guitar than the male.
- Not in love with male character but with her guitar.
- Sells to older audience, one night stands.
- David Walliams & Simon Pegg (comedians, which maybe enhances the comedy aspect of what the video is trying to do)
