Chosen Song

The song that we have chosen to use for out music video is;

 'Kesha- We Are Who We Are' (2010)

After we had spent time discussing and researching the concept that we wanted to create for our music video we agreed that we must find a song that represented youth, originality and freedom. Both the artist of this song and the lyrics convey this perfectly making this the correct choice for our video idea.

The lyrics to the song are as follows; 

Hot and dangerous
If you're one of us then roll with us
'Cause we make the hipsters fall in love
When we got our hot pants on and up

And yes of course we does
We runnin' this town just like a club
And no, you don't wanna mess with us
Got Jesus on my necklace-ace-ace

Got that glitter on my eyes
Stockings ripped all up the side
Looking sick and sexyfied
So let's go, oh, oh, let's go

Tonight, we're going hard, hard, h-h-hard
Just like the world is ours, ours, o-o-ours
We're tearing it apart, part, p-p-part
You know we're superstars, we are who we are

We're dancin' like we're dumb, dumb, d-d-dumb
Our bodies going numb, numb, n-n-numb
We'll be forever young, young, y-y-young
You know we're superstars, we are who we are

DJ turn it up
It's about damn time to live it up
I'm sick of being so serious
It's makin' my brain delirious

I'm just talkin' true
I'm tellin' you 'bout the shit we do
We're selling our clothes, sleepin' in cars
Dressin' it down, hittin' on dudes, hard

Got that glitter on my eyes
Stockings ripped all up the side
Looking sick and sexyfied
So let's go, oh, oh, let's go

Tonight, we're going hard, hard, h-h-hard
Just like the world is ours, ours, o-o-ours
We're tearing it apart, part, p-p-part
You know we're superstars, we are who we are

We're dancin' like we're dumb, dumb, d-d-dumb
Our bodies going numb, numb, n-n-numb
We'll be forever young, young, y-y-young
You know we're superstars, we are who we are

DJ turn it up
DJ turn it up
DJ turn it up
DJ turn it up

Tonight, we're going hard, hard, h-h-hard
Just like the world is ours, ours, o-o-ours
We're tearing it apart, part, p-p-part
You know we're superstars, we are who we are

We're dancin' like we're dumb, dumb, d-d-dumb
Our bodies going numb, numb, n-n-numb
We'll be forever young, young, y-y-young
You know we're superstars, we are who we are

We realised we would have to contact the record label responsible for Kesha, to ask permission to use the song for our own work. Below is the email we sent to RCA Records.

After sending this email , we received a post master failure response and the email had bounced. I therefore found another way to contact the record label would be to send the same message on the contact us feature of the website.
