Everybody, Everybody!
Both the song and video have a lot of tender love behind them, and the combination of both (even when it branches off to tell its story) feels heart wrenching. I’d say the video adds to the song’s impact, turning a standard ballad into a tale of lost love. They don’t relate much besides their surface message, and the song is mostly a soundtrack to it. Nonetheless, it’s a good interpretation of the song. - 6/10 in relevancy.
Talking Heads - "Once In A Lifetime"
The Reconqueror
I think the Talking Heads where one of the first bands to reflect in the video what was they are meaning in the song they play. We see these feels of urge and angst that Byrne wanted to print in the lyrics and feel that several times adult life take us literally drowing...
Hey Ya - Outkast
That one neurodivergent girl
I like how the music video shows how people can overlook what the lyrics actually mean and just dance along to the beat, as if it was the happiest song ever, even though "Hey Yeah!" is one of the best examples of Lyrical Dissonance.
Self-explanatory title. Please note that this isn't a judgement on good the music video is, just how faithful and relevant it is to the song. I will start:
