Romance on a Rocketship - Skin & Bones music video analysis



this song and video's storyline is about the lead singer falling in love with a girl, and he is trying to get her to be his.



in this tubechop, there is a lot of illustrated footage as the song says 'With your long, long hair and your big, blue eyes' at big blue eyes, the girl opens her eyes revealing they are blue as illustrated in the song.



in this clip, the use of a lion shows disjunction from the song, however when the words 'but back it up' are played it shows the teacher running away from the lion or 'backing up' showing some illustration between the video and the song.



this tubechop shows complete illustration between the song and music video as when the words' i sure think you're beautiful' are played, in the video the girl opens a letter that says exactly the same on it.

  1. This songs been autotuned beyond belief but you still use some good theory. Very Emo

  2. i agree it is overly autotuned, so far much as the singer could be anyone and not make a difference. however the video is very interesting, and the tune can get catchy once watched a few times, and is very light,poppy and colourful, which fits the 'Emo' audience.
