2. Say Something - A Great Big World & Christina Aguilera
Set in a large dark room we see a man, a woman, a piano, and heartbreak in its very many forms happening around them. Hauntingly beautiful, it is almost impossible to not shed a tear while watching the music video for "Say Something" . The video tackles all of the most heart wrenching times a person can go through in their life, and everyone can find a situation in this video that they can connect with and feel for. Gorgeous closeups of water falling like teardrops mixed with scenes of broken families, lost relationships, and saying your last goodbye's to the one you love, add the the sadness of this video. We see Christina Aguilera glowing under a spotlight, often shot looking up with the camera looking down on her while she sings "say something I'm giving up on you". This could most certainly symbolize giving up on faith, another heartbreaking time that very many people can relate to. The video is simple, as is the song, but both are overflowing with emotion.
