1st entry: 50 ways to Say Goodbye

Summary: This is a music video by Train called "50 ways to say Goodbye" I think the title is pretty self-explanatory. :) The message in the video is basically thinking up excuses why you're supposed significant other is no longer with you. Or when someone asks you about them and you don't reveal that you are not longer with them, you would make up an excuse.

• Who created this message?
• - The music band Train made this message
• What creative techniques are used to attract my attention?
• -They used actors, the lyrics, and funny scenes in the music video.
• How do I feel about the message/issue? Why?
• -It made me laugh and I thought that I could relate to the message in a way. The lyrics sounds so ridiculous but then the real meaning to it is that this person is having a hard time getting over their old love.
• How might different people understand this message differently from me?
• They might believe that it's not nice because the lyrics might be taken seriously instead of just enjoying it.
• What lifestyles, values, and points of view are represented in (or omitted from) this message?
• I guess a normal sort of suburban lifestyle is showed here because the setting is in a grocery store. The point of view would be in the perspective of the person who was broken up with. The values would be probably love and lessons of moving on.
• Why is this message being sent?
• It's kind of sending their emotions to the person who made them feel this way. Usually music is also to let other people know that they're not the only ones to feel this way :)
