Final Song Choice

My group and I have decided to use the song Tonight I Let You Go by The Colours to base our video around. This is because we wanted to to create a upbeat contemporary Pop Video. The song Tonight I Let You Go is upbeat and contemporary. Also the lyrics of the song is vague in that it does not fit one particular set theme, therefore using this song peice will allow myself and my group to explore and use different music video narratives and a range of music video concepts eg character representation

Research into the band - The Colours

Name: The Colours

Band Members: Tom Pickford – Vocals, Keys & Guitar Tom Newman – Base, Synthesisers & Backing Tony Folland - Drums, Sequencing & Percussion

Location: Reading, United Kingdom

Information about the song – Tonight I Let You Go (http://www.unsigned.com/thecolours)
The single, Tonight I Let You Go is a song about the trials of the heart in the formative years; the movement from one relationship to the other. But this isn’t a soppy love story; far from it. Planting a brave face on the inner discomfort exposed within the lyrics, this upbeat number puts a lighter spin on darker issues. Analysis of the lyrics gives more insight into this realm, and it is from here that they have an outlet to let hidden emotions run wild and free.

The Colours album was realised on January 1st 2011

The Colours have had 114633 views on MySpace as well as attracting 5557 friends.

The song Tonight I let you go has had 1,559 plays on MySpace so far.

Tonight I Let You Go - The Colours : Lyrics

Your empty promises
Stop filling up my mind while my loves’ away
Temptation calls me
To this And loveless fools believe
Their guilty hearts still bleed
But their cold lifeless heart beats wear them out

[Chorus] Cause you’re the heart break that I couldn’t deal with
You were the mistake
That no-one could save me from
But I know I’m better off leaving now
You are the only reason I want it more
You know I want to be on my own tonight
I just keep on running
You know I want to be on my own tonight
Tonight I let you go

My insecurities
Playing on my mind, colours never change
You should come back, come back, come back(And look for more)
But love that runs too deep
Stolen moments we couldn’t keep
You should go before the night time lets you down

[Chorus] Cause you’re the heart break that I couldn’t deal with
You were the mistake
That no-one could save me from
But I know I’m better off leaving now
You are the only reason I want it more
You know I want to be on my own tonight
I just keep on running
You know I want to be on my own tonight
Tonight I let you go

Tonight I let you go
Heart break, heart break
Heart break (tonight I let you go)
Heart, heart break
Heart break, heart break, heart heart break
Tonight, heart break
Heart break, heart break, heart break, heart break, heart break
I just keep on running
You’re the heart break
I couldn’t deal with
You were the mistake that no-one could save me from
But I know I’m better off leaving now

You are the only reason I want it more

You know I want to be on my own tonight
I just keep on running
You know I want to be on my own tonight
Tonight I let you go

Tonight I let you go

Tonight I let you go
