Panic, At the Disco- I Write Sins Not Tragedies

I really like the way Drake made this video, as it is a common storyline but in a really interesting, creative way.

The visuals show a wedding, where the bride runs away, and decides to be with someone else.

There are lots of close-ups of Brendon Urie, lead vocals.

I love the way, the band and actors make-up, hair and costumes are done. The theme is circus like, which makes the video stand out, and more enjoyable to

watch.
