Song Choice

We have chosen to use the song The End by Ellie Goulding in our music video. We chose to use this song because we are both fans of the artist and her music. We are also very familiar with the song which will help us create a video that appeals to other fans.

Other songs of Ellie Goulding's that we considered include Animal and Human. We decided against using these songs because we prefered the slower beat in The End and also the lyrics as we felt we could relate to them and therefore had more ideas to create a video with for this song. We also considered different artists such as Eminem but felt that the lyrics to his songs would be inappropriate for our project.

The End - Ellie Goulding - Lyrics:

We've only ever kissed lying down
We've only ever touched
When there's no one else around
I can be elusive if you want me to
I'm not being intrusive
I just wish I knew the truth

As to why
I wait for you
Longer than the average person would
And why
I think about you
More than I think one should

Our body's fit together like a makeshift puzzle
And It's clear to see why you puzzle me
when you turn your frame
And you whisper my name
As though I am a burden

Cause I'm making up for last time
And I'm making up for you
And I'm waking up from last night
And I'm waking up with you
So what's new
So what's new

I am at your house
So I belong to you for now
Trying to impress you
But lord I don't know how
I can be a statue if you want me to
I'm not being difficult I just need to know the truth

As to why
I'm wanting you
And I would take you away if I could
And why I'm still here
It's something I still haven't understood

Our hands press together like pieces of paper
But they're always blank when I hold your hand
And it gave you a fright
When I stayed the night
Cause you gave yourself to me

Cause I'm making up for last time
And I'm making up for you
And I'm waking up from last night
And I'm waking up with you
So what's new
So what's new
It's not the end
It's not the end
So don't let's pretend

Cause I'm making up for last time
And I'm making up for you
And I'm waking up from last night
And I'm making up for you
So what's new
So what's new
So what's new
