The Beach Boys - Wouldn't it be Nice

Me and Rach have made a decision about what song we'd like to use for our music video - 'Wouldn't it be Nice' by The Beach Boys. Not only is this song relevant in both it's lyrics and summery vibe, it is also universally iconic and greatly liked by people of all ages.

Here are the lyrics:

'Wouldn't it be nice if we were older
Then we wouldn't have to wait so long
And wouldn't it be nice to live together
In the kind of world where we belong

You know its gonna make it that much better
When we can say goodnight and stay together

Wouldn't it be nice if we could wake up
In the morning when the day is new
And after having spent the day together
Hold each other close the whole night through

Happy times together we've been spending
I wish that every kiss was neverending
Wouldn't it be nice

Maybe if we think and wish and hope and pray it might come true
Baby then there wouldn't be a single thing we couldn't do
We could be married
And then we'd be happy

Wouldn't it be nice

You know it seems the more we talk about it
It only makes it worse to live without it
But lets talk about it
Wouldn't it be nice

Good night my baby
Sleep tight my baby'

From an editing point of view, this song has a lot of potential because of its change in tempo towards the end of the song. This means that we can experiment with faster editing such as jump cuts, and slower editing for example using fades. This will allow us to explore a range of different editing techniques.
