Narrative music videos

Narrative music videos portray a short film that links the lyrics with the images seen on screen.
Narrative music videos commonly express the artist's meaningful lyrics, as seen in Bruno Mars's 'Grenade'.

Lyrics are usually long winded, instead of repetitive in narrative music videos and can convey a certain ethic or message, in this case Bruno Mars captures his feelings in the lyrical narrative and music video.

In this different styled narrative music video, Kasabian emotionally sings about the conflict happening around the world displaying in their music video a scene where they are enduring conflict between two sides, 'I'll tell you what to fear the most' is a commonly used lyric in the song expressing the hate in todays world.
