Track research

Female artists:

t.a.T.u

Though there are 2 singers, the differences in their voices are very subtle, so we could get away with a solo singer and of course the narrative parts of the video would involve other actors. Most of this could be shot in a studio, the performance parts: we could have different sets which gave the feeling of entrapment like corners/ closed doors or a box room type situation.

The Veronicas

Aly and AJ

These two are a bit too mainstream and 2007 is a bit recent methinks.

Male artists:

Jack's Mannequin

Dark blue is open to many interpretations, so we'd have pretty much free reign over a music video. The performance is quite different to most band performances (not the typical drums.guitar type thing). It's quite upbeat and sounds like a fun song, so the video could also be fun and quirky.

Train

So this song is sweet and lovely, and the lyrics are so abstract that a video  could be pretty much anything. It wouldn't require instruments to be played etc. The performer could really actually perform. Narrative would also be fairly easy to write for this song. And it's an awesome song.

Kris Allen

The last one may bit a bit slow. I don't think we'd need instruments for this, because Kris is a solo artist. We could get some really good narrative going with these songs too.
