Alt-J - Breezeblocks
Here, in this narrative music video the lyrics match the visuals for example the beginning scene depicts the second verse of the lyrics 'But hold her down with soggy clothes and breezeblocks'. This illustrates that the music video is contradicting Goodwin's theory as they are not ignoring the common narrative to be the base of the video.
The Wombats - Techno Fan
In this music video, The Wombats have decided to use both narrative and performance and by the singer of the band acting out as the main character in the narrative gives the viewers a connection and a good understanding of the song other than making their video look realistic. As the ending of the chorus of the song, it sang '..I never knew I was a techno fan'. Here
the lighting flashes on and off creating a dramatic mood by developing the scene to resemble a club which gives thrill to the audience but also makes the lyrics memorable. 'Techno Fan' includes repetition and performance to make it easier for the audience to watch without losing interest.
