Bangarang and Unthinkable


            I chose to watch the video Bangarang by Skrillex.  Throughout the video there are three boys trying to “take down,” the ice cream man and his truck.  They eventually accomplish this and rob the ice cream man.  They were the lost boys.  The song is entitled Bangarang, which is the battle cry of the Lost Boys in the movie Hook.  That is why the movie is talking about lost boys. 

            The video I chose to post was “Unthinkable” by Alicia Keys. This is one of my favorite music videos ever in life!  It is set back in the day when it would have been unthinkable for a black woman and a white man to be together which is just what that video shows.  The song talks about doing the unthinkable, even if it makes you look crazy and people won’t approve.  In the music video the young couple is in love and people don’t want to see them together.  Alicia Keys’ (the girl in the video), family tries to stop them from being together by fighting him and making her stay away because they think he isn’t good enough for her.  In the end the two are finally able to be together and be happy.  The family realizes this is what is going to make her happy and that she really does love this man.  They also realize he is not going to do any harm to her, loves her, and is going to treat her exactly how she deserves to be treated.
