When I first heard the music the theme seemed to be sad and greatly depressing
Analysis and interpretation:
The music video shows a lot of variety through out the song. The scene changes with the song to show a story between the two lovers. It is obvious that this song was made for the movie because the clips from Titanic are in the video. This song was made to establish a connection between the audience and the couple so that we felt what they felt. I think the song does this well. The themes of this song may be that even though they both love each other they have the ability to move on.
Consideration of cultural context:
I am guessing that this song was inspired by the actual titanic.
Expression of aesthetic judgement:
The instrumental, lyrics, and clips in the music video come together as one to portray a story of the lovers and make you feel connected to their story. The music set the mood of sadness but you can tell it is about love. The visual were clips from the movie. They brought the audience from the beginning to the end of the love story and really developed a connection with the audience.
Ongoing reflection:
I feel that the song is very effective by itself but with the video it becomes a little stronger.
