Hey There Delilah - Genre

I have chosen to make a music video of 'Hey There Delilah'. This song is by Plain White T's and belongs in the Indie Pop and Acoustic genres. Most of the songs in these genres  have one person on a guitar and usually the same person singing. Here are two examples:

Indie pop key characteristics are guitars, single person singing and innocent lyrics. Acoustic means that there is no electronic or electric assistance for the instruments e.g. guitar.

In most Indie Pop and Acoustic genre you would normally find a guitar, a singer and quite a plain background and setting. There is no elaborate staging for the music videos.
