1983

1. What was most interesting about this article was when the author is speaking of Lauper's video. In the scene where he talks about the mother asking her daughter about living her life right, she considers "right" as being the housewife role. It is most interesting to me because personally, my mother always wanted me to play what I would consider a very feminine role, not necessarily the way this mother was wanting for her daughter though. I can relate somewhat to how the daughter feels.
2. I feel that Lauper's video had a stronger message. It felt alittle more personal to me and was alittle simpler than the other video.
3.My video, "Holiday" by Vampire Weekend is also about just having fun and doing what you want no matter what anyone else says. The video has a light hearted comical feeling about it, this is easiest portrayed at the end of the song where one of the band elbow-drops a guy they just got finished fighting. I do not feel that these videos will help me as much with my assignment becasue in my opinion, my video may have a slightly serious undertone in it , but it is not nearly as serious as these other videos.
