Time Flies - Porcupine Tree
So this is by far the coolest and most creative music video I have ever seen. First off, I think it is extremely significant that this music video never ever showed the band like most music videos do. Instantly that sets this apart from others, as this isn't video isn't a representation of a band, but rather tells a story in itself.
The music of this song doesn't follow the traditional forms of popular music today in the way it is arranged or composed, but this makes it extremely unique.
Artistic touch is seen throughout the video from the somewhat sepia-like tone of the background to the black-and-white tone given the people. This in a sense detaches the people from the background, which is mostly nature and things that last. And the people fade into the background, which correlates with the idea of the song perfectly.
Let me know what your thoughts on this music video are in the comments section!
Happy Music Monday!
