Lyrics

Flyleaf - Cassie:

The question asked in order
To save her life or take it
The answer no to avoid death
The answer yes would make it
Make it

Do you believe in God
Written on the bullet
Say yes to pull the trigger
Do you believe in God
Written on the bullet
And Cassie pulled the trigger

All heads are bowed in silence
To remember her last sentence
She answered him knowing what would happen
Her last words still hanging in the air
In the air

Do you believe in God
Written on the bullet
Say yes to pull the trigger
Do you believe in God
Written on the bullet
And Cassie/Rachel pulled the trigger

How many will die
I will die
I, I will say yes

Do you believe in God
Written on the bullet
Say yes to pull the trigger
Do you believe in God
Written on the bullet
And Cassie pulled the trigger

(Do you believe)
Do you believe in God (Do you believe)
Do you believe in God (Do you believe)
Do you believe in God
And I will pull the trigger

Location Report

When deciding on our location we had to consider factors such as weather, light/darkness and permission.
We needed a dark room background for most of our video because it’s a dark storyline. We decided that a garage would be the most appropriate so we used Lauren’s, as it was clear.
We needed dry weather to film outside which we found difficult with the amount of snow, this affected our production schedule slightly as we had to pick days when there was no snow.
Originally we wanted to film in and around a church, because of the religious theme of our song, however we found we needed permission to film in a churchyard and the church was only open on Sundays when none of us were available. So instead we decided to use Laurens garden and garage for it all and just use different movements and angles to make it look different.

History of Music Videos

History of Music Videos

Music videos transformed the music industry, as artists were not only able to show their singing ability, but also how they perform and their image. Music videos are an effective way of drawing attention to a certain performer and their song, and in many cases receive more publicity than the song it’s trying to promote due to the controversy some bring. Examples of controversial music videos are Madonna’s ‘Like A Prayer’ and The Prodigy’s ‘Smack My Bitch Up’.

Music videos originated from an Australian TV show called ‘Countdown’, which first aired in 1974. Various acts appeared on the show, and a short music video clip was used to promote each of them. These clips proved popular, and the music industry soon discovered the potential of putting film to music.

A band from New Zealand, known as Split Enz, were one of the first groups to create an entire set of promo clips for each of the tracks on their album ‘True Colors’ in 1980.

The first nationwide video music program to air was ‘Video Concert Hall’, which premiered in America in 1981. A few months later, MTV was launched. This saw the birth of 24-hour music television, premiering ‘Video Killed The Radio Star’ by The Buggles, as it’s first video. In 1983, the most successful and influential music video of all time was released. Michael Jackson’s ‘Thriller’ was 14 minutes long and featured scenes of zombies and the famous ‘Thriller dance’. During the 1990’s, MTV launched music channels all over the world and has played a large part in the music industry ever since.
