Classic Rock Music Video
- Story line
You expect inmost classic rock music videos to include some sort of story line of which will then be linked to there theme and for the music video to plainly link to the song. For example "Bryan Adams Everything I do" It's a love song with a story line narrative in which both of these parts clearly link together.
- Live band/Recording sessions
"Rock" in general is made up of instruments what's a rock song without a Guitar solo, this is why in classic rock they have live bands being shown producing the music in which you hear. this then in turn links in with the storyline as the bands performances will reflect what's happening in the story at that present moment, the music will reflect that to. Some times for example in "You give love a bad name" They have a live concert going on where you can see the audience going mad.
- Instrumental
The Use of instruments is key in any form of rock what rock band doesn't have guitar of drums. IF you take Classic Rock for example and Metal Scream both have bands, however classic rock incorporates melodic solos where allot of Metal Scream music doesn't so there are difference with using band music. Like if you compare "Slipknot and and Guns N Roses", Guns N roses is more melodic.
- Lengthy guitar solo
The lead guitarist is the usually in line with the singer in the cases of being a front man. A rock audience will look for the guitar solo then when it arrives just erupt. in classic rock music videos guitar solos are used as a way of showing the true emotion of the story. For example in "November rain", the wife in the story dies Axl rose is feeling isolated the solo performed by slash shows this by going from a great huge church, to being outside a small church in the middle of the desert. This reflects the loneliness and the passion of the main protagonist in this story.
- Theme "Love,Hate, Joy" any key emotions get put into classic rock
Some sort of story involved in the music video, just to mark the theme of the music. For example "Sweet child O Mine" this song is in the theme of love and the music video just looks and sounds as if Axl Rose is just venting his feelings in a random jamming session.
- Performance
Rock bands perform they want to put on show. So in some Classic Music Videos they show what likes like just a recorded live performance in which the band will be running around playing there hearts out to the crowd and one another. A good example of this is "Bon jovi You give love a bad name" The Beatles Twist and shout music videos shows all of these features performing and engaging with the audience.
- Style
Classic rockers are conventionally meant to look quite edgy with funky shoes special trousers trousers and side ways hair. slash is a key example of this.
