Lyric Analysis - Shot Idea's

As i am deciding what shot types I am using for my video and taking inspiration from various artists I have decided to brainstorm some idea's on what shots I can use through my video, these aren't for definite its just to give me an idea on what I am working towards in my project. 

"If you love somebody"
- Shot from rooftop, urban city 

"Better tell them why they're here 'cause"
- Shot of couple, or friends 

"They just may run away from you"

- Shot of people running away from camera or towards camera, maybe slow motion, will research how cheesy it would look if i used slow motion. 

"You'll never know what went well"

- shot of suburban city/ fields 

"Then again it just depends on"
- cuts back to friends in car having fun 

"How long of time is left for you"
- could have a shot of the driver laughing smiling, either from the side or from the rear-view mirror

"I've had the highest mountains"
- Shot from the window of fields passing by 

"I've had the deepest rivers"

- cuts to a shot of a large body of water, possibly Rother Valley, need to research where i can shoot this type of shot. 

"You can have it all but not til you move it"
- Close up of someone singing the lyrics. 

"Now take it in but don't look down"

- Friends playing football or playfully shoving people on a field 

"'Cause I'm on top of the world, 'ey"

- Shot of car driving past in the distance 

I'm on top of the world, 'ey

- someones hanging out the side of the window laughing 

"Waiting on this for a while now"

- shot of fields and hills from the view of the car 

"Paying my dues to the dirt"

- shot of people buying something in shop 

"I've been waiting to smile, 'ey"

-shot of people leaving shop laughing 

"Been holding it in for a while, 'ey"

- shot of friends getting in car shoving each other in having fun 

"Take it with me if I can

- shot of car driving off

"Been dreaming of this since a child"

- Shot of car in distance driving 

"I'm on top of the world"

- Car in rural area 

"I've tried to cut these corners"

- Car driving around corner 

"Try to take the easy way out"

- Shot of people in car 

"I kept on falling short of something"

- shot over city 

"I coulda gave up then but"
- cuts back to car 

"Then again I couldn't have 'cause"

"I've traveled all this way for something"


"Now take it in but don't look down


'Cause I'm on top of the world, 'ey


I'm on top of the world, 'ey


Waiting on this for a while now


Paying my dues to the dirt


I've been waiting to smile, 'ey


Been holding it in for a while, 'ey


Take it with me if I can


Been dreaming of this since a child

I'm on top of the world


'Cause I'm on top of the world, 'ey


I'm on top of the world, 'ey


Waiting on this for a while now


Paying my dues to the dirt


I've been waiting to smile, 'ey


Been holding it in for a while, 'ey


Take it with me if I can


Been dreaming of this since a child


And I know it's hard when you're falling down


And it's a long way up when you hit the ground


Get up now, get up, get up now


And I know it's hard when you're falling down


And it's a long way up when you hit the ground


Get up now, get up, get up now


'Cause I'm on top of the world, 'ey


I'm on top of the world, 'ey


Waiting on this for a while now


Paying my dues to the dirt


I've been waiting to smile, 'ey


Been holding it in for a while, 'ey


Take it with me if I can


Been dreaming of this since a child


I'm on top of the world
