Textual analysis – James Morrison ‘You make it real’
Media Representation
I think this song represent anyone who is in love. It is about that one person who keeps you ‘real’ when so much is going on in life and that nothing really means anything unless you have someone to share it with. I think in the video James Morrison has been represented as quite lonely as he is always by himself, he has been represented like this as it goes with the song, ‘that’s why iv been missing you lately’ it shows that they are apart. I think that him being the song writer/his own institution. The lyrics are what he has interpreted and will mean something that has happened in his life.
Media Language and Forms
The denotative meaning of this video is that ‘you make it real’ a girl obviously makes him feel secure and allows him to be his self. He needs her because he is lonely in his busy world. The connotative meaning of this video could mean that nothing really matters unless you have someone to share it and it doesn’t matter what anyone thinks because no one knows him like her. Everyone will have a soul mate you just need to find them. ‘Everybody’s talking, in words I don’t understand. You are the only one who knows just who I am’ he feels as though everyone surrounding him doesn’t understand the person he is and even though people surrounding him knows English he doesn’t understand there morals or what they believe. All he believes in and understands is this girl. In the video at 1.38 the background is blurred out and it just focuses on him. This empathises the loneliness and how he stands out from everyone else because his emotions have taken over him.
