Wonderwall Lyrics Analysis

The Lyrics of the song ultimately signify that it is a love song. There are many words, which are repetitively used which therefore create this idea. Words such as ‘You’re’, ‘I’, ‘me’ and ‘my’ suggest a sense of belonging. Also, use of the word 'heart' is another reference to love. The overuse of these different words creates a link to romance.

It also integrates the use of Barthes’ code. We know this as enigma is created through the different clues which are given within the song. Within Wonderwall the message portrayed is that Noel Gallagher is in love with someone but has not shown his passion for her yet. We can suggest that the semantic code is used at 1:37 as there is an additional space next to Noel on the row of seats. We can imply as an audience that the additional meaning is his hope for the girl to come and fill the seat next to him. Moreover, we can suggest that the symbolic code is the use of the mirror as it could be used as a symbol in hope that the girl will be there in his reflection.


Action is the suspense of finding out who the person he is in love with. This therefore links to the symbolic section because fans will therefore try to create theories and work out who the lyrics are aimed at. The symbol created is the fact he says 'There are many things that I, would like to say to you but I don't know how'. This short quote is a use of binary postilion as he loves the woman but is scared to tell her. This creates the idea that he is nervous to tell her his true initial feelings and is trying to tell her through the lyrics of the song.

Institutional information to use - Digipak Planning

Image
Within a digipak there must be information on both the institution and producers of the CD. From researching and looking through different magazine adverts and dikipaks I have found some of the must important pieces of information to include: -        - Firstly, the name of the record company is one of the most important pieces of information as it informs people who helped to produce the music. -        - Sometimes the names of the band members and the roles that they have in the band are included -        - It should include where the song was produced and created. -        - There should also be a section on the individuals who helped to create the designs and photographers. -        - The key institutional information should include the management of the band.

Birtipop fashion and style

Kangol Bucket Hats: This particular style of hat became popular during the late 80's 'Madchester' era. They were specifically worn by Artists such as: Elton John, LL Cool J and the Gallagher brothers. Thanks to Oasis and The Stone Roses it stuck around as a Britpop staple. In 2016, the millinery still remains the perfect accessory for any festival fanatic. We can use this style of Fashion within our Music video to recreate one of the biggest fashion statements during the Britpop era. It will also show our knowledge on the fashion of the genre but also the fact that many Artists wear these styles of clothing during their Music videos. Many fishermen used to wear Bucket hats to protect from the rain whilst fishing. Many fans of the Britpop genre started to wear these in Manchester, to protect them from the rain during festivals and concerts. From there on, it has spiraled into a huge fashion statement of that era. Parka Jackets: The Parka jacket was first popularised

Editing feedback for our final rough edit

Image
This video shows  the specific information which we were given by our audience to help us make our music video even better, we also asked other people their opinion on our video and everyone else also suggested that we definitely need to improve the lip syncing. This is due to the fact that it is not in time and can be edited easily to make sure we change it so that it looks more professional. Besides this minor change we were given positive feedback on our music video and that they enjoyed both the introduction and ending where we included  small parts of the live performance.
