"Nowhere Near My Heart"
Composed and Directed by Kori Pop

LYRICS:

She spun a web,
And captured all his memories - good and bad.
Now, he's a mess.
And though he still beats valiantly,
There's a nothin' left.

She's never getting anywhere near his heart again,
Never near his heart again
Nowhere near his heart again x2

Nose in a cup,
Where he drowns thirty odd years of a messin' up.
Wallowing gets you nowhere real fast,
It leaves you stony,
Until your smiles are phony,
And awfully lonely...

Ahhhh...

It's too late my soggy friend,
She's packed her bag - she's leaving.
You've cried wolf too many times
Too many times,
Too many times.

(and that's what you get)

He's never getting anywhere near her heart again.
Never near her heart again.
Nowhere near her heart again (eh, eh, eh, eh, eh)
She's never getting anywhere near his heart again.
Never near his heart again.
Nowhere near his heart again (eh, eh, eh, eh, eh)

You're never getting anywhere near my heart again.
Never near my heart again.
Nowhere near my heart again (eh, eh, eh, eh, eh) x2

Never near my heart again.

This music video was shot on my friends Canon D5 Mark II and edited entirely in iMovie '09 (the stop-motion animation was captured on a Nikon D60). What I wanted from the onset was an animated video but because I myself am not an animator (and nor could I afford to hire one at this point in my career)... I decided to take matters into my own hands. I created all the puppets and sets using scrapbook paper, a couple magazine cut outs, odds and ends around the house and, my own drawings. The tapping feet belong to Elephant the Marionette. While I listened to DNTO podcasts, I was giggling to myself as each character and backdrop came to life. Filming was a riot. Myself, and my helpers ~ Amber Edgar and Gramma ~ found that our "inner child" was not as far from the surface as we may have thought.

Now. When I informed people that I would not be starring in my first music video I received some confusing and concerned looks. Here's what I have to say about that:

Too bad
(wink)
