What's in a song?
I continue to avoid working on my own vid (which still sucks) by thinking about vidding. Procrastination rules.
Okay, so song choice. I'm curious how people define a "good" song choice for a vid. I'm all over the map about this. So much of it is subjective, personal musical taste combined with individual character interpretation, that it gets difficult to point to any set of rules and say, "yes, this is what you should think about when choosing a vid song."
What kinds of things make you, as a vid watcher, think "GREAT song choice" when you see a vid? Are there any universal constants? How do you distinguish between personal taste and a song choice that just doesn't work for you, but that works in context of a specific audience, and a song choice that is just flat out a bad idea?
Help me waste time and learn something in the process please. :)
