Keane - Is it Any Wonder's Brilliant Video Concept

Keane is and Alternative Rock Band from England. "Is it any Wonder" is a song featured in their Second album called  Under the Iron sea.


CONCEPT OF THE VIDEO

The concept behind the video is to give you the feeling of a  roller coaster ride especially when you haven't  been on one ;-)  It's really exciting to watch when you know that the viewpoint of a camera is just like if your riding on it.

Simon Taylor whose the designer behind it made a roller coaster on which camera is spinning round and round the band. You really don't know what's going on and where you are and there is this sense of confusion because the camera is all over tha place and thats exactly the idea the Band wanted to project. It does reflects the mood of the song because the camera is moving really fast which shows the speed of the track.
Nothing has been done  quite like this by any Band so this makes Keane really special.

Limp Bizkit - My Way

My Way is a song by LimpBizkit,
from their album Chocolate Star Fish & Hot Dog Flavoured Water.
 It was the fourth single released from the album.
The song is pretty different from the conventional LimpBizkit style
with Fred Durst (lead-vocalist) mostly singing rather than Rapping.


  This comes in my List of Top 5 merely because of the lyrics from
start of the song till end.
Recorded in 2000 & Released in 2001.

P.O.D (Payable On Death)


With a 15-year career under their belts, P.O.D. has logged a remarkable array of achievements, including worldwide sales exceeding 8 million, sold-out international concert tours, a series of chart topping radio hits, and an unprecedented FOUR #1 MTV videos.

Supported by their passionate fan base - known as "THE WARRIORS" - the band has created what they describe as "a catalog of music that we want to respect and honor with each step into the future."

"P.O.D. is an exciting and an important band with an expansive musical vision and a powerful message for our times."



The song's video and lyrics are directly inspired by The Matrix Reloaded. The chorus features the line "dreaming of Zion," which refers to the last human city of planet Earth as depicted in the film.
