1: Less Than Jake- "The Science of Selling Yourself" (suggested by Jake)
2: Streetlight Manifesto- "On&On&On" (suggested by Jake)
3: Arctic Monkeys- "Mardy Bum" (suggested by Chris)
After discussing our ideas for the music videos and the band's genres it was clear that if we tried to do song 1 or 2 Chris would be being lead into a project in which he could not easily participate because he did not have a strong interest in or knowledge of Ska music. Therefore we dicided to pick "Mardy Bum" by the Arctic Monkeys because we both had a good knowledge of genre. Also, although we both liked Less Than Jake's "The Science of Selling Yourself" it seemed to be too slow and we both thought that our idea for "Mardy Bum" was better.

I chose to pick two Ska songs because of an interest in the genre and because, once listening to each song, I thought of a clear concept for each video. But I thought that Mardy Bum would be a song which would give Chris and I more chances to be creative as we have a better understanding of the Indie Rock Genre.
I decided on two tracks that I thought would allow us to be creative as well as enjoying the production. I chose between "Arctic Monkeys - Mardy Bum" and "The Fratellis - For the girl".
However I felt that "Mardy Bum" would allow us to be more creative and allowed us to be more focused as we had some clear ideas for it already.
For the final picking between Jake's two ska song's and "Mardy Bum", I felt it would be better for us to either do "Mardy Bum" or "Less Than Jake - The Science of Selling Yourself". After discussions with Jake we decided to plan for "Mardy Bum" as we had some good ideas for it already and the "Less Than Jake" song already had a previous video.
