Planning - Sara Bareilles - Gravity (chosen song)

Lyrics

Gravity

Something always brings me back to you.
It never takes too long.
No matter what I say or do
I'll still feel you here 'til the moment I'm gone.

You hold me without touch.
You keep me without chains.
I never wanted anything so much
Than to drown in your love and not feel your rain.

[CHORUS:]
Set me free,
Leave me be.
I don't wanna fall another moment into your gravity
Here I am and I stand so tall, just the way I'm supposed to be.
But you're on to me and all over me.

Oh, you loved me 'cause I'm fragile
When I thought that I was strong.
But you touch me for a little while
And all my fragile strength is gone.

[CHORUS]

I live here on my knees
As I try to make you see
That you're everything I think I need here on the ground.

But you're neither friend nor foe
Though I can't seem to let you go.
The one thing that I still know is that you're keeping me down.

You're keeping me down, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
You're on to me, on to me, and all over...

Something always brings me back to you.
It never takes too long.

The reason that we chose this song is because it is very emotional and has a lot of passion, which we thought would be appropriate for our music video as we want to use contemporary dancing which involves a lot of love and passion. We also chose the song as we thought it was slow  and steady so it would be easier to fit a dance routine into it. We didn't think this song was massively popular so we thought that getting copy rights for the video would be easily attainable. Which it was.  I feel that the song has a lot of meanings behind the words which represent the singers past, so we felt that it would bring emotion to the music video.
