Deciding on a Song.

The song we eventually decided on was 'One Night In October' by The Little Comets. We decided on this song because it fitted into the criteria we were looking for; its a fairly simple song that of course fitted into the genre we had decided on. We also liked the fact the song is not particularly well known so it would not cause audiences to draw comparisons to the original band. Although we didn't really want a song that already had a video, the fact that it isn't very well known meant that we could put this aside, as we liked the song so much. The lyrics were another positive for the song that persuaded us to choose it as they are interesting and gave us some rough ideas towards what we could include in the video as well as the performance element which we knew we wanted to include. This was a song that the three of us agreed would work best and something that we felt we had enough inspiration from to create an interesting and successful music video.


Lyrics:
Oh language is dead, so she believes
I'm looking up, socially bereaved,
Just like Carlisle, she lies on the border
Disorder surrounds, her every noun

One Night In October
The clocks go back
And she attacks me oh
Grabbing my left shoulder
Suspects in texts that leave her wrecked
Oh oh One night in October

I sit her down and say this must stop,
Cause all we do is argue then shop,
She goes to Boots, I go to Argos
Complete with deceit
We stalk each aisle

One night in October,
She throws a towel, the sink, a scowl
Oh oh One night in October,
With more invective than the average detective
Questions me on the lawn

With doors ajar, tonight I will sleep in my car,
One night in October

Oh ooooh oooh

Oh intensive care, intensively she's aware
That I, I miss the heat, solace and sway of the sheets
Oh, this dashboard's so hard
Can't cushion the beats of my heart

One night in October!
Oh oh one night in October
The clocks go back,
And she attacks me oh
Grabbing my left shoulder
With more invective
Than the average detective
Questions me on the lawn

With doors ajar
Tonight I might sleep in the car
One night in October

Heeey heeeey!
