Initial Idea 16/10/09

For this project i have decided to use lyrics from a song, i am hoping to use the idea of film to create a narrative with these.


The song i have chosen to use is by a band called Japan and it is called Ghost.
I think that the lyrics to these songs are a really good way of getting a flow of images or stills.





Ghost: wriiten by David Sylvian

When the room is quiet
the daylight almost gone
It seems there's something I should know
Well I ought to leave but the rain it never stops
And i've no particular place to go

Just when I think I'm winning
When I've broken every door
The ghosts of my life blow wilder than before
Just when I thought I could not be stopped
When my chance came to be king
The ghost of my life blew wilder than the wind

Well I'm feeling nervous
Now i find myself alone
The simple life's no longer there
Once i was so sure
Now the doubt inside my mind
Comes and goes but leads nowhere

Just when I think I'm winning (the chorus repeated).

I think the lyrics are fantastic, they have a real sense of emotion and i think could make strong imagery or stills.
My reason behind this choice of group and song is that i can remember these songs being played in my house over the years and so it is a song that i know and strongly remember.
