Topic: Music Video on Play On by Carrie Underwood
Issue: Inspirational Song to give the message, never give up even when life gets hard, and “Play On” Angle: From the girl getting bullied. Story: We start the video with girl A in her room, writing a letter directed to someone (which we eventually find out it is to Girl B). It cuts to girl B sitting all alone in a crowded library. A group of girls will come up to her and will laugh and point then will push her to the ground. It cuts back to A writing out lyrics to the song on the letter. When girl B gets home, she’s upset and goes on her laptop to check social media. It cuts back to A putting the letter into an envelope and writing something on it. It cuts back to B, and she gets cyber bullied by the same group of girls. She’s sad and starts crying. It cuts back to A walking up to a house and leaving the envelope on the doorstep. It cuts back to B, who hears a doorbell and she wipes away her tears. She picks up the envelope and opens it, reading the letter and smiling. On the next day, she’s back at school in the library. But this time, she’s stronger and doesn’t let the bullies get to her, even though they say mean stuff to her. Girl A helps Girl B and stands up against the bullies, and Girl A and Girl B become friends. Lyrics: What you're gonna do when the show is over What you're gonna sing when the the song ends How you're gonna cope when there is no closure Where you're gonna reach when the goal gets higher How you're gonna make it through When you think you lost your chance Play on when you're losing the game Play on 'cause you're gonna make mistakes It's always worth the sacrifice Even when you think you're wrong So play on Even when the floodgates swing wide open Never let the current take you down, no Even when you're not sure where you're going Swimming through a mess and you can't get out Just going through the motions Trying not to drown (climax) Play on when you're losing the game Play on 'cause you're gonna make mistakes It's always worth the sacrifice Even when you think you're wrong So play on (climax) Even through a storm on the darkest night Don't you ever give up the fight Even when you feel you're all alone Play on, play on Play on when you're losing the game Play on 'cause you're gonna make mistakes It's always worth the sacrifice Even when you think you're wrong So play on |
