  I'm Yours
By jason Mraz



I changed this song because i love it and his letter try to say "live the moment" and don't  worry the love is came for you. The melody in the song is relaxing and make me think for the future and be patient,  enjoy the life and don't worry for the little things that present in the life. 
The video was made in the nature, the author travelled and  met new people , he was a backpacker and travelled for different countries.This video was film in Hawai in 2008 by the director Darren Doane
This song is the first single in his album "We sing.We dance.We steal things".I'm Yours was nominated for Grammy Award for Song of the year and Best male pop vocal performane and the single was the 3th more selling in 2009 and was number one in Sweden and Norway, was top 10 in  U.S.A, Canada, Australia , Spain and others countries.

a song to think


This is a song with a lot content because  it make us think about what are we watching on tv these days, we just watch some people talking about famous people just empty content and thats the open tv,  thats the kind of content that everyone can watch and in my opinion is zero contribution to the comunity becouse it has zero cultural contribution to young minds, i can bet that if you asked some students about the chilean Showbiz they will know a lot more than if you ask them about their perhaps last lesson  History but know about showbiz it's right for them because thats what the tv shows them, famous people fighting each other  it's more fun than be attentive to histoy channel or the history lesson.

 She will be loved: My Fauvorite music video

   I love this particular video for his letter and idealized love. Since it is possible to identify the content of the song meaning, because it is an impossible love.I think the song writer would simply tell us that what ever it takes a woman should always be loved. Also he  would comfort her and he loved her, and is waiting for her to realize that she loves him too.Can be taken from two perspectives but in this case it's about an old man and his socialite wife, whose relationship is juxtaposed with that of their daughter's relationship with a young man. The younger man, constantly obsesses over his girlfriend's mother, understanding that, although she is constantly rejected by her husband and that her life is one of emotional anxiety, she is nonetheless beautiful and attractive, and possibly more so than his own girlfriend. He sees the woman's face in place of her daughter's, increasing the romantic tension.

 The music video was said to be inspired by the movie The Graduate Dustin Hoffman, although the history of the relationship between the mother and the young man is a nicer way instead of the humorous and somewhat bitter in the film.Like many other videos, many assume that it coincides with the song, but it opens with the phrase 'beauty queen of only 18' and then the video shows how the singer is in love with a woman in its 40. Although it can be interpreted to mean that the woman feels like 18 years, young and energetic, and yet does not receive appreciation from her husband, which makes her unhappy.

 She Will Be Loved ranked 689 of "The 1000 best songs ever" magazine Q Music.

Want you bad: teenagers representation?

My favourite music video is "Want you bad",interpreted by "Offspring",The music video was filmed in Los Angeles on the 10th and 11 of January 2001, and was directed by Spencer SusserIt takes place in a party, with the band playing in the background. The vocalist of the band "Dexter Holland" doesn't like the video at all because it is kinda "inauthentic",showing a short film representing one of the most "well-known" scenes for media attraction.

The video protagonist is a man trying to get some girls for sexual action,but in every try he fails and get slapped,the meaning of the  title "Want you bad" is not for the idea "want you badly",the main idea is he want a "dominatrix" kind woman,wich means "a whoman who takes the dominant role in bondage".

Personally, i don't like the video for the main idea,for me the video is the representation of most teenager period,showing us a very similar scene compared to our parties as teenagers,in fact,i would dare to say that the reality of many of us is represented in the video.

Thriller: An historical video


My favourite music video

   My favourite music video is Thriller of Michael Jackson. According  to publications of internet, the video was created by the own Jackson and John Landis, director of film “An american werewolf in London”. Landis has said that one day in 1983, received a call from Michael Jackson. The artist had seen the movie about the american werewolf and he wanted to make a film where he turned into a monster in the screen. Beside, Jackson wanted to tell a story with music. After they got the money, even Jackson put one part, they made, more than a music video, an small short film combining the story with the music and dance.

  Jackson had to support five hours of make up for achieving the wished effect.
The video cost 800 thousand dollars, the most expensive of the history until then. Thriller transformed the history of music videos and  now is part of popular culture. Even the video is the first in come into the lists of culture treasure of USA.

   For the public, the video is a parody of terror films,  because until zombies are funny. Even the zombie concept, as partly alive,  has been used in students protests, as happened on 2011 in Chile.

   This music video had been imited a lot of times in differents places of the world. As a sample of its enormous success, I can say that it has been seen 133 million times in You Tube.
