"Busy" - Olly Murs
This is one of my favourite music videos out there. Its kind of a narrative video. Its about Olly Murs, who gets lonely so creates a paper mache female to live with him. The concept is really interesting and abstract and its composed in quite a beautiful way. It conforms to quite a few of Andrew Goodwins music video conventions: the visuals shown on screen link well with the lyrics as the song is all about just enjoying life and not getting caught up in the big things when you can just enjoy the small things in life which is represented on screen by the two characters just going about daily life, enjoying books and having a social gathering with their closest friends. Overall, i think its really well done and represents the genre ideally.
