Research: Literal Music Video / Bad lip reading



I originally found this video on a programme called 'Rude Tube'. I thought it was very witty how they changed the lyrics so that it matched what was on screen so it mocked the music video and made it humorous.



This Youtube channel turns music videos and makes new songs and replaces the original song in the music video with it so that it twists the representation of the Artist. One of these examples is Taylor Swift's 'Our Song', which twists her innocent personality to the opposite, by simply changing the lyrics and adding more of an urban edge to the song. Her music genre is pop/country/folk, so the genre has been vastly changed. They have edited it very well so that most of the lip sync is accurate, and adapted the song to it.



Here are both of the videos together, as you can see almost every clip is the same, with the same timing. It shows how much lyrics could change a viewer's impression of the Artist.
