Owen and Noah versus the music videos
Video 2: "Pyromania" by Cascada
"Hey Noah, let's check out this video. It's got a hot chick on it!"
"Sure thing." Noah clicks on the video. It loads...
Pyro pyromania
ma-ma-ma-ma-mania
Pyro pyromania
Noah: That's actually a cool effect, making it look like there's lights coming out of their mouths. Really makes it seem like they are robots.
Owen: Yeah, but what could it mean?
Call me obsessed
Call me insane
something is creeping through my veins!
Eyes cannot see
what's undeneath
Owen: Good lord, she's hot!
Noah: (smiling) You know it! She is one sexy lady!
Owen: Wow wow wow! Did you see that smile of hers? Just wow!
Noah: I know! Wow! She is smokin hot!
Pyromania! Pyrmonaia ow!
Pyromania! (Give it, give it up girl!)
Pyromania! Pyromania Ow!
Ow! Ow!
Owen: Wow, there is a ton of symbolism in this video!
Noah: How so?
Owen: Well there's tons of fire, and robot guys, and that hot chick, and dancing...I think there's a meaning behind all this!
Noah: There is, wanna know what it is?
Owen: Yes!
Noah: The robot guys represent the music industry and how overloaded it is with pre packaged 'artists' that can easily be disposed of and replaced. You can tell it's this because there's very little way to tell them apart, yet sparkly lights come out of their mouths.
Owen: And the fire?
Noah: It represents the irrepresible soul and passion of the true artist, which can not be put out by an uncaring industry that exists solely to churn out factory made lyrics and beats.
I must confess
A thousand degrees
Bring out the beast inside of me
Don't be afraid
Go into the blaze
It's gonna melt your fears away!
Owen: So what does she represent?
Noah: Who?
Owen: The chick. Cascada.
Noah: Dude, sometimes a hot chick is just a hot chick. She's there cuz she's the one singing the song. Dumbass.
Owne: Oh come on Noah, don't be so mean!
Noah: Well really man, think about it. Why does everything in a music video need to have meaning? Why can't something be as it is presented?
Owen: Gee, now there's a question we should ask Lady Gaga.
Pyromania! Pyromania ow!
Pyromania!
Owen: Hey, how did you know that's what this video represents?
Noah: Yeah...I made it up.
Owen: I thought so. I don't think this video means anything.
Noah: It's a whole lot of pretty images that look nice. And a hot chick.
Owen: Yeah. Not that there's anything wrong with that. (Chuckles)
Pyromania! Pyromania ow!
Pyromania! Ah, ah ow!
Pyromania!
Noah: Know what sucks? I hate videos that pretend they're this deep piece of art, where really it's all just a bunch of bullshit symbols only a handful of people will understand.
Owen: Yeah, I hate that too. It's like a guy that paints a square and two circles and says it's a protest against the Iraq war or something!
"So anyway, know what? I think I want to watch another music video." Noah places his cursor over the search bar.
"Hey, I know a video I've been dying to check out lately!" Owen exclaims.
