These tracks could typically have perfect cadence or a key change somewhere in the song leaving the listener with a sense of resolution leading to a happy and heartwarming feeling which is perhaps why some genres have greater audiences than others.

This will include movement to convey that idea. 3. The Bedroom There will be a 'bedroom shot' of person one and person two lying in a bed together whilst person one is lipsyncing. This is a repeating visual throughout the video, however, the positioning of the characters changes parallel to the narrative depending on whether or not the relationship is steady or if it is rocky. For example, person one and person two will be facing each other in one scene, dissimilar to another scene when person one is facing the camera and person two is turned away from person one on their phone which is the first visua...
