City Shot Meaning

The meaning of the song 'Hold Me Down' is that Halsey (the original artist) is forced to conform to society's expectations and what people want her to do and want her to look like, etc. In cities, there is typically a strict structure and routine adopted by city workers - having to wake up at a certain time and have to get the same mode of transport every day. By choosing to place our artist in front of videos of different busy cities, we are showing an example, about one that is not extremely obvious, of a life that (stereotypically) has no room for freedom and experimentation - a place of "normal" jobs. Because we have placed the artist in front of the videos we are conveying that she wishes to break away from expectation of how she should be to what she really is and what she has a passion for.
