How did we choose our track?

Before coming to our final decision of Kid Cudi- Maui Wowie, there were a few other songs we deliberated over.

One artist we considered was 'La Roux' and the song 'Cover my eyes'. This would have incorporated very different ideas and themes to our end choice. La Roux is quirky and has something different to a lot of other singers so this could have been quite interesting. The song is slow and has a sad emelemt so our music video would have contrasted to what we are actually going to create for this project.




Another possibilty was Rihanna 'Good girl gone bad'.

The idea for this song would have been on the lines of telling a story to the audience. A girl and what has happened to her. There were a lot of good ideas for this song, however we decided against it as we were looking for something different.
Finally, we came across the perfect song...


Kid Cudi 'Maui Wowie'.

We had actually began developing ideas for our video, and discussing the 'superhero' theme, that will be in our music video, before we had chosen a song. It happened naturally, as we sat in class and were lisetening to songs on an ipod, we came across this song and instantly all agreed on it, also that its light hearted nature would fit our concept perfectly.
