Analysis of Lyrics

The lyrics to our music video were very bland; to some extent they didn’t help us. All though they connoted psychedelia sounds with the music however we were music focused on the sound of the track rather than the vocals.

All though we didn’t provide conventions of the vocals we did however try to link Captain Al Hubbard in our music video. This did prove some difficulties as we were restricted by equipment and budgeting. We did want to use Egyptian cotton clothing to represent Captain Al Hubbard in our video but problems with casting and finding someone who didn’t have young characteristics were difficult.

Instead what we did to tackle this issue was carry out a Mad Hatters Tea Party. Captain Al Hubbard travelled about opening peoples mind to psychedelia. What we’ve connoted with Al Hubbard in our video are the people that have been changed my Al Hubbard. It’s because of him people our aware of psychedelia.
