‘With the lights out, it's less dangerousHere we are now, entertain usI feel stupid and contagiousHere we are now, entertain usA mulatto, an albino, a mosquito, my libidoYeah, hey’

Image Relation To Text – The song is about teenagers which are always seen as ‘stupid’ as said in the video multiple times and the video is of them fighting back against it, being seen as rebellious.

How Is The Artist Presented To ‘Sell’ – There are several close ups just before the pace of the music is increased, which makes the audience focus on the artist.

Are Females Presented Voyeuristically – The women are sexualized by wearing skin tight outfits and by moving ’the right parts’ of their body. There can also be seen women which wear very revealing clothes in the background.

Further Comments – The scenes / colours of the scenes are very dark, which is symbolic of a teenage room that has an interest in that genre of music since the clothes they wear in the music video are very dark and dull.
