Analysis of Pop video 2: Pitbull, Neyo, Afrojack and Nayer 'Give me everything tonight'

Give me everything tonight is a recent pop song performed mainly by Pitbull but with help from other artits, such as Neyo, Afrojack and Nayer. The song is about enjoying themselves that night because they think that maybe they may not get the chance to tomorrow. In the video, we see Pitbull and Neyo, surrounded by many women at different points throughout and it's as if they are all individually trying to impress them in order to win their 'love'.

1- This is the first shot we get of the music video, and very conventionally of Pop videos, there is a Rich, well off looking man with a women near to his side. This appears to be his 'partner' at first, but as the story develops in this video, we see that he isn't interested in just her, he likes the attention from a lot of girls.
-
2- To further the example of this, of these men not satisfied with just one women, the next shot is of Neyo with 2 women with him, he appears to have just 1 initially as he has his arm around her, but as the other women steps on to the platform with him, he checks her out.
-
3- Besides the rich grey coloured suits, the wealth of these 2 men is furthered when the establishing shot shows a very beautiful view of the city, and this shows the importance of these 2 men.
-
4- The next screenshot I took I thought was important to the story within the music video, as it shows that maybe he is content with 1 women in this story as he seems to be laughing and joking around with her 'flirting'. This video contradicts the view of many pop videos, being that a lot of videos people tend to find their true love and it's like a fairytale ending, as this portrays the men as 'players' due to the fact the are constantly shown with different girls.
-
5- This 5th image that i chose of this song was for me very important, as unlike the rest of the women in the video, this women is shown on her own, and in a sexy way, so this shows that she is the women of desire in the video. She appears on a blue background so that she stands out and so that the viewers recognise she is important.
-
6- The 6th image form the video i have chosen is of one of the ladies getting jealous as the man she is with is looking elsewhere. This is quite stereotypical of rich successful males, as you read in the papers all the time about footballers having affairs and flings with oher people. For example, John terry or Ryan Giggs. So this image shows that the story in the video, that the men cannot be trusted and that they always look for more attention.
-
7- This screen shot shows what kind of atmosphere the song is, and that is quite an upbeat clubbing tune, and that is why there is a party going on in the background. This shows the tempo and pace that these people are living there lives and clearly, due to the way they treat the women who are interested, they are not ready to settle down yet.
-
8- This image shows yet another women getting jealous which reitterates the point that the men in the video are just there to have a good time, not to settle down with a women just yet. However, it does convey that these men are very sought after as many women seem to be trying to get with them.
-
9- In every music vdeo this part is important, as it is where all the singers/performers are pictured in the same shot so that the audience can grasb who is singing and what bits.
- As this is quite an upbeat and fast paced songs, the cuts between shots are quite quick to reitterate the tempo of the song. The choice of clothing is very appropriate as well, as the 2 men who seem uper class and important are in smart suits with ties, and the imporant women who appears halfway trhough is in a very sexy dress.
