Analysing The Lyrics

When we had decided that we were going to use 'I can talk' Two Door Cinema Club. We then thought that we need to look at the lyrics and try to work out what they mean. So we printed out the lyrics on an A3 page and analysed them.

Song Choice - I Can Talk

On deciding to dismiss the initial idea and initial song our group had to develop our music video further with a new song. We decided to stick to the gender of indie/pop, as we wanted to create an up beat, fragmented music video thatwill captivate viewers attention. We wanted to staywith the initial idea of the clown mask, yet develop the idea further into a strange fantastical video. Our teachers problem with our fist idea was that it was too linear, and that the song was too slow and sentual for the content of the video. I Can Talk by Two Door Cinema club is an irratic, up beat track, with many increases and decreases in tempo. We played the song to our teacher and she agreed that it was a good choice.

Lyrics

I Can Talk - Two Door Cinema Club

You won't believe what I tell you,
White coats and clever minds will choose
You get a lot from thisLoose tongue and arrogance
It's not appropriate
Don't think that this is it

Now I can talk, no one gets off
(I know how you like to)
Now I can talk,no one gets off
(repeat)

A longer sentence brings no more
Than one that I had said before
It's hard to compromise
When I see through your eyes
It's just a common view
I guess it's lost on you

Now I can talk, no one gets off
(I know how you like to)
Now I can talk, no one gets off
(repeat)

instrumental

Now I can talk, no one gets off
(I know how you like to)
Now I can talk, no one gets off
(repeat)
