Drafting and Planning

The song I have decided to create a music video for is a Keys N Krates remix of 'Tove Lo- Habits'.

Original song: LINK - Tove- Lo - Habits

The original song is about the empty void that loneliness creates and that people try to fill it with drugs, sex and alcohol, which doesn't work, but does make you forget it for the moment. The artist is singing about missing someone, and that she is trying to forget about them and needs to numb the pain that she is feeling.
This song closely links to depression where you feel numb and the point where you would do anything to feel alive and happy again.




The remix changes the meaning of the song as it focuses on the lyrics 'I've got to stay high all the time to keep you off my mind' and 'Can't go home alone again, need someone to numb the pain'. This is about the mask of alcohol and drugs and how people avoid their problems by abusing it and also how people use sex as a rebound and as a fall-back method of getting over an ex partner.

I like the remix better as the rhythm of the song is more fast paced and lively, which makes the song less depressing and more fun to listen to.
