Everything Is An I Pod In The Future: The computers in the video for "Europa VII" are white and have a bit of Raygun Gothic mixed in for variety. | |

Obituary Montage | |
La oreja de Van Gogh (Music) / int_2a6da241 | comment |
Obituary Montage: Inverted. The music video of "Jueves" features various Spaniards simply interacting with the camera (saying hi or making gestures) as a remembrance of those who died in the March, 11th bombings. It's a testimony of the life spark every human being harbors and that violence snuffles away. | |

Recap by Audit | |
La oreja de Van Gogh (Music) / int_2d9a126a | comment |
Recap by Audit: The lyrics of "Pop" recounts the chaotic, shallow life of a soulless Queen of Pop by describing all that she leaves behind —bills, alcohol, and tons of money. The song also explains how she became such a sensation —she has pretty hands, speaks French, is talented (she sings, acts, and paints), and has culture. | |

The POV character of "Cometas por el cielo" records In-Universe lots of B-Roll footage of herself and her girlfriend. They are on a road trip doing, you know, lover birds stuff. | |

Last Kiss | |
La oreja de Van Gogh (Music) / int_849d24d9 | comment |
Last Kiss: "Jueves" is about a tragic love story inside one of the trains the day of the May 11, 2004 bomb terrorist attacks in Madrid, ends the lyrics like this (it is implied this happens after the explosion when everything's in the dark): | |

La oreja de Van Gogh (Music) / int_a4c37cbe | comment |
The music video of "Las noches que no mueren" is entirely comprised of footage of the band members on vacation. Quite the Mood Whiplash, what with the song being about a person who has to leave behind her loved ones. | |

Tomato Surprise | |
La oreja de Van Gogh (Music) / int_c13c9e38 | comment |
Tomato Surprise: "Jueves" (Thursday) tells a cute story of a girl who takes the subway every day just to see a boy whom she's silently in love with, until she finally gathers the courage to talk to him and finds out he likes her too. Pretty romantic. Then, in the second-to-last verse, she mentions that "this special day, March 11th" was when they declared their love to each other. On that particular day, a terrorist group set several bombs aboard four commuter trains in Madrid, killing 191 people. Then, the last verse states: "the lights of the tunnel go out. I find your face with my hands, gather courage and kiss you. You say you love me and I give to you the very last beat of my heart", implying that they were riding one of those trains. | |

B-Roll | |
La oreja de Van Gogh (Music) / int_c2c4893a | comment |
B-Roll: The music video of "20 de enero" has a live-action and an animesque part. Superimposed on the former, there's Amaia, the vocalist, performing the song. The story is about a girl who goes to sleep and lives a crazy adventure in her dreams. The protagonist is Amaia, so it's a tad surreal to see her in the B-Roll footage, just beside herself. It's probably on purpose. Several of the band's music videos from The '90s and the early Noughties prominently feature footage of people doing mundane activities. Such as "Rosas", "ParÃs", "GeografÃa", and "Soñaré". Also, one song from The New '10s: "La chica del espejo". "Europa VII" shows footage of key moments in human History —from the Nazi Germany concentration camps to terrorist bombings. The lyrics tell the story of a drifting astronaut who knows she's going to die, so she reflects how, from this afar, the Earth looks so tiny, its interpersonal conflicts so petty and inconsequential in the grand scheme of things. Quite a few of the music videos from the Leire Era (after the band changed vocalists) are comprised of random cuts of the band preparing for a performance — all the way from disembarking the airplane to setting up the stage clutter. Examples include "Cuando menos lo merezca" and "DÃa Cero". The music video of "Las noches que no mueren" is entirely comprised of footage of the band members on vacation. Quite the Mood Whiplash, what with the song being about a person who has to leave behind her loved ones. "Camino de tu corazón" is comprised of footage of travel-related stuff (boarding, baggage, passports, etc.) with the song's lyrics and colorful filters slapped onto it. The POV character of "Cometas por el cielo" records In-Universe lots of B-Roll footage of herself and her girlfriend. They are on a road trip doing, you know, lover birds stuff. "Estoy contigo" has shots of elderly people either by themselves or being shown affection masked over colorful footage of landscapes and urbanscapes. Since the song is about the determination to stick by loved ones suffering from Alzheimer, the masked footage represents precious memories being slowly erased by the disease. | |

I Will Wait for You | |
La oreja de Van Gogh (Music) / int_c8d6d621 | comment |
I Will Wait for You: "La playa" is about an isolated boy living in a beach house that falls in love with a girl, but it's just a summer love for said girl. The boy promises to always wait for her, but the girl never comes. In the end, the boy is already an old man and he is still waiting. | |

The Band Minus the Face | |
La oreja de Van Gogh (Music) / int_cb44433f | comment |
The Band Minus the Face: Many people thought the band's time was up when lead singer Amaia Montero departed the group in 2007 to pursue a solo career. They have been proved wrong: as of 2016, the band is still running fine with Factor X alumnus Leire MartÃnez as their new lead vocalist, while Montero enjoys moderate success as a solo act. | |

La oreja de Van Gogh (Music) / int_d227deda | comment |
Standardized Space Views: "Europa VII" has a doomed astronaut as a protagonist. As she ponders over religion, politics, and philosophy, there are times when she peeks at the slowly-moving spacescape. The camera also pans to show a rocket-like spacecraft launching from a rocky planet and then flying through the stars. | |

Star-Crossed Lovers: The song "Jueves" is about a man and a woman who confess their love for each other on a train... just seconds before dying in the terrorist attacks of March 11th. | |

Grief Song | |
La oreja de Van Gogh (Music) / int_e680af6f | comment |
Grief Song: "Jueves" is written apropos Madrid's subway bombings. As such, it tells the story of a pair of Star-Crossed Lovers who confess their feelings right before they die. The song's overall message is that of mourning all the lost lives because every single one of them had their own spark and contained their own romantic or epic tale. | |
