It is quite a fierce song with alarming sounds so it gives an emergency and dangerous feel to the video. The artists are represented as individuals which conntotes power and makes the audience focus on just them.
Madonna 'Hung Up'
This video represents an older women being young and having fun. It has non-digetic sound of a clock ticking, linking to the words 'time goes by so slowly'.

This video overall represents her as wanting to be young and show she is a good dancer, also that she has a very good body at her age.
Katy Perry 'I Kissed a Girl' This is a rock genre. Katy Perry is represented as a wild girl in this video, although it is about kissing a girl so the colours used are very feminine. As well as being a rock chick she wears very girly clothes that are revealing. She is represented as a wild girl that still has her girly trates. She is shown as being courageous.
