OK so the music video for Katy Perry's Firework is finally out and it is, without a doubt, fantastic! I've thought for a while now that Katy is getting better and better. I don't know if it is the fact that she is finally finding out what she wants form the musical scene or whether she is now more comfortable in her own skin and style or even if it's her relationship with Russell Brand that has made her so different. But either way I am LOVING this new Katy. She is fantastic, shes never looked or sounded so good. She seems healthy and happy and it's all reflected in her music. Her latest album 'Teenage Dream' is amazing.
Going back to the music video for 'Firework'. This video tackles so many issues that are relevant to today's everyday struggles. It looks at domestic issues, It looks at the stigma attached to illness, It looks at low self esteem issues and also homosexuality. It shows through the lyrics and through the 'fireworks' that sparkle within each of the main protagonists within the video that we all have a spark within us. Katy's message that she projects so perfectly within this song is one of hope. Every character within the video had a situation before them in which they didn't know what to do. They each decided originally to do nothing, to stay quiet, keep their decisions to themselves. But the spark within them made them decide to go ahead and do what they really wanted to do. This is such a great message for any ones life. Do what you can while you can. Don't be scared. You DO have a spark inside of you. Go for it grab at life!
From the outfits to the messages, from Katy looking absolutely beautiful all the way through to the fireworks and the happiness everything about this video is perfect. Katy has really outdone herself this time.
