Many songs let people imagine a scene in their own mind as they listen to it. Everyone has a different image in their mind which makes it unique. However, at times after watching the music video many people change the image in their mind to match the video. Some people change the way they imagine the song because after watching the video they may feel that what they thought the song was about is wrong.
I don't feel that after I watch the music video I change how I picture the song. I have been a fan of Lady Antebellum for quite some time and when I first listened to "Hello World" I pictured a man going through life trying to find out who he was and what his purpose in life was. This man also seemed to be having a rough day and was trying to deal with it. I have seen the music video many times and even after watching it I still imagine the video how I described it. I don't believe the music should be acted out in the video because everyone feels differently.
There are many songs that the video doesn't match up to the lyrics. In cases like this many people, including myself, continue to imagine what we feel and see when we listen to it.
